About Us

Hands Across Canberra is Canberra’s independent community foundation. Founded in 2010 by a group of Canberra leaders with the idea of creating a foundation to help fellow Canberrans and give back to the community, it now works with more than 300 local community organisations.

The goal is to tackle the challenges in the community by raising funds for community-service organisations working with our most vulnerable individuals and families, while also embedding a culture of giving in Canberra.

How your donation will help

By supporting Hands Across Canberra through the Hands Up for Canberra Giving Day, you will be supporting over 300 local charities and community organisations in our network, as funds will be going into our next grant round. Hands Across Canberra regularly distributes grants based on the needs of those most vulnerable in our community.

Hands Across Canberra would like to acknowledge the Ngunnawal people who are the traditional custodians of this land on which we operate and conduct our fundraising activities and pay our respects to the Elders of the Ngunnawal Nation both past, present and emerging. We respect their continuing culture and the contribution they make to the life of this city and this region. We also extend this respect to all Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples who are visiting this page and our many partner charities that work with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples.
