Applications for Community Recovery Grants Program now open
The Department of Local Government, Sport, and Cultural Industries is actively supporting the Community Recovery Grants Program, which is aimed at assisting communities affected by the events associated with ex-Tropical Cyclone Ellie.
Led by the Department of Communities, the program will allow people to seek funding for activities and events that build community resilience and assist recovery — with an emphasis on social and emotional wellbeing.
The program offers 2 initiative grant streams:
- Small Community Initiative Grants for projects ranging from $2500 to $20,000
- Large Community Initiative Grants for projects ranging from $20,001 to $100,000.
Additionally, there is an opportunity for claims up to $75,000 for clean-up and repair expenses.
