The Calvary Community Council was established by Calvary Health Care Tasmania to reach out and provide assistance to Tasmanian people in need, reflecting our Catholic social justice tradition and Calvary’s commitment to caring for marginalised and vulnerable people.

To further our mission, the Community Council offers two statewide grant rounds per year for not-for-profit Tasmanian organisations to improve the health and wellbeing of marginalised and vulnerable Tasmanian communities.

The Calvary Community Council gives preference for organisations who are addressing identified and specific unmet, under-resourced or under-serviced health needs in the community.

The CCC gives particular attention to projects identified for five vulnerable groups: the marginalised, children (especially in early development), those lacking sources of nutrition, those lacking oral health and the elderly.
