Alice Springs is flipping the script with a new community campaign designed to grow giving and support local initiatives. 

The Mparntwe Alice Springs Community Foundation has launched Give2Give, a community-wide giving program that connects local donors with grassroots groups and people already #GettingGoodStuffDone. 

 Thanks to a generous local donor covering all administration costs, 100% of funds raised go directly into the community. 

 Givers can choose to support one of three streams: 
Strengthening existing community Good Stuff 
Supporting new initiatives 
Events that build community connection 

… or they can contribute to the General Fund, where funds will go to where there’s greatest community demand. 

Community groups, clubs, and do-ers are invited to submit simple Expressions of Interest (EOIs) between October 21 and November 20, 2025. EOIs will be received by the Give2Give Community Working Group and selected EOIs will be invited to expand into short proposals. Funding will typically range between $1,000–$10,000 per initiative, depending on funds raised.

“All of us want to see Alice Springs strong and connected. Give2Give is a way for locals to back locals — every dollar builds confidence, cohesion, and connection,” said Nicole Walsh, Community Lead of the Give2Give Working Group. 

Funding decisions will be determined by the Give2Give Working Group made up of respected local leaders and Foundation board members, ensuring fairness, integrity, and transparency. 

Give2Give was launched 21 October at Community@Sunset, an event co-hosted by Yeperenye and the Chamber of Commerce NT.
