The Scottish Masonic Charitable Foundation of WA will consider applications from all organisations, however priority will be given to organisations:

• Whose activities/project focuses on key priority areas identified by the Foundation.
• Who are incorporated not-for-profits or registered charities in Western Australia.

Support will generally not be given to:

• Individuals (except in exceptional circumstances at the discretion of the Board).
• Activities that are:
     - primarily the responsibility of Federal, State or Local Government.
     - part of a school's core activities and do not involve the broader community.
• National or Overseas beneficiaries (unless in support of disaster relief).
• Capital works on land not owned by the applicant.
  In this situation all items are required to be re-locatable so they may be moved with the organisation if the need arises.
• Funding of an operating deficit.
• Programs/projects offered for the exclusive benefit of a religious or political group.
• As a general contribution to the corpus of another grant making organisation.
• Charities, organisations who:
      - have failed to fulfil previous grant requirements of the Foundation.
      - are deemed to hold funds in excess of their requirements.
