About CCI Giving
CCI Giving is a new kind of foundation for the Australian Catholic community from Catholic Church Insurance (CCI).
Building on the shared knowledge and spirit that comes from over 100 years of insuring Catholic organisations, and a strong history of giving back to the Catholic community, CCI Giving is CCI's latest way of extending support to make a difference in the Australian community.
Through small and large grants, we’re helping Catholic organisations and others carrying out Catholic mission in Australia to make a positive impact.

Our mission and objectives
We value the strong Catholic traditions of kindness, compassion and giving back – that’s why we’re giving back to those who need us most.
A growing number of organisations and causes are going unfunded each year, while other charities are at funding capacity. By focusing on gaps in current social welfare areas, we’re giving back to those overcoming challenges and adversity, and to the most marginalised in society.
CCI Giving brings communities together.

Impact grants program
Impact grants are designed to make a significant, scalable difference in the Catholic community and beyond, through strategic national investment in microfinance and mental health.
These longer-term partnership opportunities offer up to five years of funding and partnership support to organisations working to overcome social disadvantage in marginalised communities, particularly in rural, regional and remote Australia. CCI Giving’s first impact grants will be announced in December 2018.
Please note, these grants are initiated by CCI Giving, in consultation with the board of CCI, and are consistent with the values and strategic priorities of CCI Giving. There is no public application process for these grants.
