The grant program provides funds for community organisations in Greater Shepparton to support recovery activities, for example to conduct COVID-19 safe training, and activities that allow groups to reconnect and continue their activities.
Greater Shepparton City Council Mayor, Cr Kim O’Keeffe encouraged eligible non-for-profit organisations to apply.
“The Social Recovery Quick Response Grant has been created to fund community-led recovery activities. The grants will fund activities that promote positive mental and physical health, build community resilience and engagement, and assist with the re-engagement of volunteers,” she said.
“The Greater Shepparton community has initiated and delivered a range of social recovery activities throughout the pandemic. These grants further demonstrate Council’s commitment to supporting our local communities.”
A total of $20,000 is available through the grant program, with up to $1,000 available for each project.
