Funding. All you need to know.
The Social Enterprise Loan Fund is designed to assist social enterprises to establish, expand or diversify commercially viable ventures, with the principal objective of addressing barriers to social inclusion in Tasmania.
The Fund is an initiative of the Tasmanian Government, administered by the Department of Economic Development, Tourism and the Arts.
Loan amounts are generally expected to range from $15 000 to $150 000, but higher amounts will also be considered. A discounted variable interest rate will apply. Loan terms, security and repayments will vary depending on the nature of the venture and will be negotiated on a case by case basis.
