Perpetual is the Trustee for the Miles Franklin Literary Award Since being established, the Award has distributed over $1.4 million in philanthropic funds to authors.
Those wishing to be part of the Miles Franklin legacy can donate to the Franklin Support Fund to become a friend of the Award, or as Miles would say a “congenial”, and receive special recognition on the Award website and in event collateral. All donations are tax deductable.
