There are just three days left to apply for Greater Shepparton City Council’s Community Grants Program and community groups, service clubs and sporting organisations are reminded to apply for their share of funding.
In Summary
Applications for the current round of the 2024 program close at 5.00pm on Sunday 11 August 2024, with a total of ten grants open for applications:
The annual Community Grants Program provides opportunities to support and empower locals and community groups to become engaged, connected and take action to support their local community. Each of the grants offer different levels of financial assistance to support community projects and events in a bid to help boost the region’s economy and prosperity
With only a few days left to apply for the grant program, Mayor Councillor Shane Sali urged local community groups and organisations to check their eligibility and consider applying now.
“These grants might be the difference between events going ahead or an upgrade taking place, so I encourage local clubs or groups to consider applying,” he said.
“Funding has been allocated for each of these grants, and Council is keen to distribute this money across the region and see it invested back into the local economy. Now is your chance to apply so I encourage anyone eligible to submit an application.”
Applications for the Community Grants Program close at 5.00pm on Sunday 11 August 2024. Get more information or apply for one of the grants here.
