What is TheGrace?
TheGrace is an online community connecting residents, businesses and community groups in the suburbs of Chelmer, Corinda, Graceville and Sherwood to each other and to the rest of the world. A high percentage of the funds collected through TheGrace will
go directly to the Global Giving Program. Through partnerships with both Australian and international charities, these funds will be used to facilitate sustainable projects in areas where help is most needed.Global Giving Program
TheGrace’s Global Giving Program seeks to support charities whose administration and fundraising costs are very low, allowing donations to go straight to the cause, and whose projects focus on sustainability and prevention rather than short-term ‘band-aid’ solutions.

The program specifically seeks to support projects focusing on improved training, education, health and women and children's welfare.
