Universal Charitable Funds was established in 2010 when a group of successful Adelaide business people decided they wanted to “pay it forward”

Their vision was to create an organisation which provides grants to charities, both in Australia and overseas, who make a difference ensuring people in need access the services and resources they need.

Ten years later Universal Charitable Funds has grown and made a difference to many local communities providing grants to support community projects that support the poor and disadvantaged.

What is our goal?

It is our goal to be providing 100 grants per year to local Australian charities who help people in need in Australia and overseas.

We want our contribution inspire others to join us in making a difference in supporting people in need and building a better future for all. This is our belief.  This is our commitment. This is why we exist.

At UCF we’re different – our grant application can be completed in just an hour or two and applications are assessed quarterly.
