Enriching children’s lives through research.

Suitably qualified researchers are invited to register their interest in participating in the peer review process for the 2026 grants round, conducted during July-September 2025.

The Channel 7 Children’s Research Foundation is dedicated to enriching the lives of children through research.

Founded with proceeds generously donated by South Australians to the SAS Channel 7 Adelaide annual Christmas Appeal telethon, the Foundation today provides $2 million in grants each year. Our grants are dedicated to generating new knowledge vital to improving the quality of life for all children.

Thanks to the generosity of our South Australian community, we’ve funded over 1,000 research projects to date, and counting.
