DCMEF

The Damon Courtenay Memorial Endowment Fund (DCMEF) was established as a perpetual Trust to be administered by Haemophilia Foundation Australia in 1993 by Bryce Courtenay and the late Benita Courtenay in memory of their son, Damon.

The fund provides grants which can be used for the care, treatment, education and welfare for people with bleeding disorders and/or their families.

Grants from DCMEF are usually made every 1-2 years.

Applications are encouraged from people of all ages who would benefit from receiving financial assistance for a project or activity. In the past applicants have received support for training and education, career development, personal development courses, conferences, and medical appliances and equipment to help people live more independently.

Applications are invited from people with bleeding disorders, or their family members or the representatives of recognised haemophilia organisations who may make applications on their behalf.

The eligibility guidelines and application form can be downloaded from the HFA website or requested from HFA by telephone 1800 807 173, or by email on hfaust@haemophilia.org.au.

Closing date for applications is 30 April 2010
