Community Assistance Grants
Somerset Regional Council assists the community by allocating a set amount of funds, each financial year, to be distributed to various community groups and individuals through its Community Assistance Grants budget.
Who can apply for a grant?
Incorporated or auspiced community organisations (unincorporated/informal groups) can apply for a grant to assist with costs associated with projects, events, services or remission of some Council fees.
Non-recurrent grants of between $500 and $5,500 will be made available to not-for-profit community organisations to undertake projects, activities or events which benefit the wider community, depending on the availability of funds and the merit of projects, activities or events.
