Groundswell Giving brings people together to pool their money and back bold, effective climate action across Australia.
Across Australia, brilliant people and organisations are already driving climate solutions — accelerating clean energy, protecting nature and making our communities safer.
Groundswell finds and backs the work that can make the biggest difference.
We bring together expert insight, community knowledge and hundreds of donations to create meaningful grants.
Give now and help build the safer, fairer climate future we know is possible.
Looking to give more? Explore giving for families, foundations and companies.
You give what you can, as a one-off or a regular donation. Every gift is tax-deductible.
Your contribution is combined with hundreds of others, creating grants that go further than any one donation on its own.
Climate organisations apply for funding. Together with expert advisors, we identify the strongest opportunities for change.
You help decide which shortlisted organisations receive funding.
Grants are delivered to organisations driving high impact climate action across Australia.

There’s no single fix for climate change. It takes action across government, business and communities, all moving in the same direction.
That’s why Groundswell looks for the leverage points.
We scan the climate landscape and work closely with trusted community leaders and advisers with expertise across campaigning, politics and policy, law, First Nations justice, energy, community organising and philanthropy.
Together, they help us understand what’s shifting, what’s missing, and where funding could tip us towards an important breakthrough.
That’s what strategic climate funding looks like – finding the places where your money can help unlock change at a much bigger scale.

Groundswell backs strategic climate advocacy – from community organising and storytelling, to campaigns taking on fossil fuels and accelerating the shift to renewable energy.
Twice a year, organisations apply for grants. A panel of experts and supporters helps shape the shortlist, then our giving community votes on what gets funded.
In a world of doomscrolling, the Groundswell Journal offers you something different – thoughtful stories about what’s working and a closer look at how change happens.
Good writing, big ideas and stories from the people working to make things better. Get the Groundswell Journal in your inbox.
