Trudy Hairs

Grant Writer

Trudy has worked in the charity sector for over 20 years. Most of that time her focus was on assisting refugees and asylum seekers in Australia and the UK. She spent a brief time working in philanthropy where she was given the privilege of bringing the vision of a community foundation for Melbourne’s inner north to life. In recent years Trudy has devoted her time to helping smaller charities with the labour intensive (and repetitive) work of grant writing.
