Current Charities

The Campbell Edwards Trust is committed to assisting those in need through devoting assistance to charitable organisations with programs in the key areas the Trust supports. We do so having regard to the wishes of the founder interpreted in light of contemporary society. The Trust categorises the charities it supported this year into the following areas:

  1. Education
  2. Children (and families) in need
  3. Basic indigence 
  4. Indigenous Australians
  5. Religion and other support

All the charities we support are imbued with the spirit of basic Christian service. In order to fulfil its commitment from finite resources, Trustees focus on areas where there is the highest assessed potential for having an impact and making a difference. Based on the deed and the founder’s intentions, over its long history the Trust has supported organisations with characteristics of primitive Christianity, and continues to look for such opportunities interpreted within modern Australia.

Every year brings a fresh opportunity for philanthropy, and to comprehensively assess the program of giving, the religious, educational and charitable purposes and objects of the Trust, and the quantum of funds donated.
