ORGANISATIONS ENCOURAGED TO TAP INTO GRANT OPPORTUNITY
Local not-for-profits, community groups and organisations are being encouraged to apply for the NSW Government’s Infrastructure Grants program (Clubgrants Category 3).
Member for Tamworth Kevin Anderson said the Clubgrants program had been delivering significant funds for important community projects across the electorate.
“Clubgrants invests in the projects that matter to our community and I’m encouraging local organisations to take advantage of this program with grants of between $50,000 and $300,000 available,” Mr Anderson said.
“I know there are some outstanding community infrastructure projects on the radar across the electorate and this is an opportunity to get them funded and underway.
“Projects previously funded by this program include the North Tamworth bowling club synthetic green, Quirindi Silo Art, and more which have benefited our community.”
“Funding can be used for a range of projects from upgrading local halls, to lighting for sporting grounds, art exhibits, community transport, or infrastructure that supports youth.
“This program is about investing in our community, connecting us and growing sport, recreation and the arts, while boosting social inclusion and disaster resilience.”
These grants are made possible by the Clubgrants Category 3 Fund which re-invests profits from registered clubs into community projects. Funding is available for infrastructure projects in four areas:
- Arts & Culture
- Community Infrastructure
- Disaster Readiness
- Sport & Recreation
Applications open from today, 1 July and close on 25 July. For more information, please visit https://www.nsw.gov.au/grants-and-funding/responsible-gambling-grants
