The Melbourne Anglican Foundation began in 1987, inspired by the vision of Archbishop David Penman. The Foundation seeks to raise funds to facilitate the mission and ministry of the Anglican Church in the Diocese of Melbourne, to enable the Church to think big and dream large about its future, and to maintain a Christian presence in the wider community. For example, we help support:
• Arts and culture through the Melbourne Anglican Cultural Organisation Inc
• Young people through the Melbourne Anglican Youth Ministry Fund
• Welcoming new migrants and refugees through the Migrants and Refugees Settlement Fund
• Journeying with and comforting the sick through the Melbourne Anglican Chaplaincy Fund
• Assisting those doing it tough through the Melbourne Anglican Benevolent Society
The Foundation fosters mission and ministry across the Anglican Diocese of Melbourne, and in the general community, by:
• Raising funds to assist the Archbishop and the Diocese fulfill its vision
• Providing tax deductibility for parish programs that benefit the mission of the church and the wider community
• Sustaining ministry to young people
• Promoting cultural activities
• Supporting chaplaincy in hospitals and healthcare
• Facilitating the resettlement, health and wellbeing of migrants and refugees.
