The Gift Fund

The Awards Foundation

These donations go directly to prize monies for authors and illustrators of the annual CBCA Book of the Year Award, with an aim to continue financially supporting our Australian creators to pursue a craft that makes vital contributions to the enrichment of lives through quality Australian stories for young people.

The CBCA Gift Fund

The Gift Fund was established to help raise funds to immediately support the many programs and activities that the CBCA runs across Australia either independently or in partnership with other like-minded for-purpose creative organisations. 

Donating to this Fund allows the CBCA to mentor facilitators of reading programs, help put creatives in classrooms, assist remote school access to national reading programs, and many other activities that bring the joy of sharing stories to younger readers right the way around Australia.
