Intent / Purpose
Fraser Coast Regional Council’s Community Grants Policy supports the Goals outlined in Council’s Corporate Plan 2023-2028.
• To embrace the Fraser Coast way of life and create connected communities through our places, spaces and people.
- Provide inclusive cultural, sporting and recreation opportunities to encourage community participation
Sponsorship is available for community groups and organisations to plan and host an event that provides an opportunity to come together to celebrate the diversity of our community on Sunday 26 January 2025.
Groups can apply for funding from $500 to $2,000 as cash.
Applications will be assessed as part of a competitive process targeting maximum benefits to the wider community.
Co-contribution is not a requirement for this grant program, however projects where the applicant is making financial contribution will be highly regarded.
An unsuccessful application does not mean that the project or activity is not worthy of support.
Council’s Grants Team can offer support to applicants to strengthen applications for re-submission in future rounds.
