‘Vital support: building resilient charities to support Australia’s wellbeing’ is the fourth report in the Partners in Recovery series from Social Ventures Australia and the Centre for Social Impact.

The report reviews the state of the charity sector a year on from the start of the COVID-19 crisis, and investigates what support charities need from government and others to be effective partners in Australia’s recovery. The report also presents findings from the Paul Ramsay Foundation’s Sustaining Our Partners Taskforce, which worked with 80 social purpose organisations throughout 2020 to ensure they remained financially viable, built their resilience, and, where possible, captured new opportunities.
