The Story of Local Impact
Local Impact began as the Inner West Community Foundation in 2019.
Directors of the Foundation recognised there was an opportunity to deliver real impact using collective professional skills, experience and local insights to power community ideas in the Melbourne’s inner west.
They have been successful in attracting funds and grants from all levels of government, philanthropic organisations and local businesses to help establish their social enterprises, including ongoing support from the Community Bank Seddon.
This funding, complemented by Local Impact’s wrap-around services, amplifies the delivery of our community’s programs. These programs in turn add skills, volunteering opportunities, and environmental and employment benefits to our community.
