CSL Community Impact Awards in Australia

The CSL Community Impact Awards will offer:

Optional Capacity Building

• Award recipients have the opportunity to participate in the Emerging Social Purpose Leaders Program (see details here), delivered by Melbourne Business School's Centre for Social Purpose Organisations. CSL Community Impact Award recipients will have the option to apply for a CSL scholarship, valued at $12,500, to participate in this Program, which has been designed to equip not-for-profit and other social purpose leaders who have little or no prior business management training, with the skills to lead their teams to generate social impact and financial sustainability for their organisation. Successful scholarship recipients will receive this with the requirement that they or their organisation cover $500 of the overall $13,000 fee for this Program.


• In addition to financial support, CSL Community Impact Award recipients will have the opportunity to receive mentoring from CSL leaders.

Financial Grant

• Each selected charity (up to 6) will receive up to $35,000, depending on their grant application, to support their health initiatives.
