The Grace Tame Foundation, launched in 2021 to drive cultural and legal reforms preventing child sexual abuse, announced its closure on Thursday due to challenges securing long-term funding.
The volunteer board, including Tame, noted recent financial deficits of $122,000 in 2024 and $61,000 in 2025, with operations winding down in coming weeks.
While some commentators link the decision to backlash from Tame’s February rally chants, others mourn the loss of a vital grassroots voice, praising her fierce work alongside survivors like Brittany Higgins.
Board members plan to continue advocacy independently.
Grace Tame’s foundation has announced it is closing, citing difficulties with long-term funding.
It’s a familiar story: a noble cause launched to support victims of sexual abuse gradually sidelined as its founder, seemingly enamoured with her own profile, morphed into a mouthpiece for broader activist causes.
A textbook case of what happens when you stray too far from your lane.
