Under the program not for profit, local community groups and clubs are invited to apply for:
- Small Grants (up to $2,000) for the purchase of equipment, special activities or information resources,
- Seeding Grants (up to $5,000) to establish innovative programs that foster initiatives to address the social, cultural, creative, artistic and leisure needs of the community.
Last year, Bayside Council awarded $103,582.85 in grants to 33 local organisations that provide community services.
At 55 applicants, this was the largest number ever received by the council for its Community Grants Program.
Organisations cannot be considered for further Council funding if previous grant acquittal conditions have not been met.
If you are unsure if you have an outstanding acquittal, please contact Council's Grants and Donations Officer on 9366 3671 or email grantsanddonations@bayside.nsw.gov.au.
