Our supporters
A number of generous trusts and foundations support our work each year with grants linked to specific projects.
Ongoing support
The Robert Rose Foundation has supported our work over many years with a particular emphasis on funding our psychology and counselling services. The Foundation commemorates Robert Rose, a champion Collingwood footballer who acquired a spinal cord injury in 1999.
Research Partners
Independence Australia is committed to supporting a range of research opportunities by developing strong partnerships with a wide range of organisations focused within the wider disability sector.

Corporate Partners
On behalf of all of those we support, we’d like to extend a very warm thank you to the following corporate partners and program supporters, as well as the many individuals who are not listed, but who give so generously to make a difference in the lives of others.
The work of Independence Australia would not be possible were it not for your support, which enables us to continue and expand our services and programs for people living with disabilities. We’re conscious that there are many other organisations seeking your support for a range of causes, and this is why we especially value your interest in our work.
