Campaspe Shire Council invites applications for round two of the 2024/25 Community Grants Program, which provides financial support to Campaspe's not-for-profit sector to deliver a range of initiatives that will improve the lives of people within the community.
Mayor Rob Amos stated that these grants are instrumental in aiding the non-profit sector to execute a variety of projects that align with the Council's aspiration for the shire to be strong, supportive, vibrant and sustainable.
"Community organisations, clubs, and associations may apply for up to $4,000 to fund a wide variety of initiatives, projects, and activities that positively impact local residents and promote active community participation.
Applications for the Community Grant program open 8am, Monday, 5 August and close at 5pm on Monday 16 September 2024. Applications will be assessed against set criteria.
The allocation of funds will be determined by the efforts of applicants to enhance the living standards of our residents, by promoting a diverse array of interests including health, wellness, sports, leisure, and the arts, and bolstering community engagement.
"I urge local organisations to begin their grant applications promptly and, crucially, to consult with a council representative regarding their submission to ensure it adheres to the criteria and increasing its likelihood of approval," said Mayor Amos.
