Earlier
More than 50 groups in Sutherland Shire have been awarded grants for small-scale infrastructure works in the state government’s 2017 Community Building Partnership program.
The program awards grants forprojects that “deliver positive social, environmental and recreational outcomes and promote community participation, inclusion and cohesion”.
Guidelines say incorporated not-for-profit organisations can seek the entire project cost as a grant, while favourable consideration is given to projects with contributions from their own or from other sources.
