About CASS
CASS is an acronym for:
‘Contributing to Australian Scholarship and Science’.
The objective of CASS is to fund programs and projects which have the capacity to provide a significant benefit to a sector of the Australian community.
CASS also seeks to contribute more generally to the philanthropic community by participating in formal and informal interest groups with other organisations.




Our initiatives
Medicine & Science Grants
In the field of Medicine and Science, CASS supports short term, ‘proof of concept’ research in promising topic areas which, if validated, has the potential to attract longer-term funding and to contribute to better practice and delivery of services.

Racism. It Stops With Me.
At CASS we support peoples from all racially and culturally diverse backgrounds. Racism and discrimination is never acceptable. We recognise that it is everyone’s responsibility to call out racist behaviour which is why we have chosen to support the Australian Human Rights Commission’s campaign, “Racism. It Stops With Me.” CASS stands against racism and will act for positive change.
