Channel 7 Children's Research Foundation – funding research today, to improve the lives of children tomorrow

The Channel 7 Children’s Research Foundation is a not-for-profit organisation dedicated to enriching the lives of children through research.

Since 1976, our grants have played a pivotal role in supporting quality research into children’s health, education and welfare within South Australia’s world class research and service organisations.

This robust and respected grant assessment program has delivered over $45M (today’s dollars) to more than 1000 children’s research projects to date, and with your help we can provide so much more.
