Investing in women and girls makes great sense
The Joyce Thorpe Nicholson Fund was named in honour of Joyce because of the enormous effort she put in to the Trust's early fundraising. The interest earned on this Fund is distributed annually as grants. Joyce passed away early in 2011. We honour her lifelong commitment to women and girls.
Every year, thanks to those who donate to our work through this Fund, we are able to support creative and inspiring projects that improve conditions for women and girls across Victoria.
You can be part of this positive and powerful capacity to give and make a difference! You can donate to the Victorian Women's Trust annual grants round online, over the phone, in person or by mail.
Every donation helps create a better world for women & girls.
We also have a range of specialist funds, which are aimed at specific issues for women.
You can donate online to any of the funds listed or contact us:
