Community Grants 2025

ripple

The Community Grants program continues to attract applications from local community groups, not-for-profits and charity organisations. Applicants can request funding of up to $30,000 to support the development of new programs or initiatives, continuation of successful initiatives and equipment or capital purchases. 

We focus on projects that demonstrate innovation, encourage environmental sustainability and develop community engagement, run by organisations that support at-risk and disadvantaged populations.

In 2025, we were pleased to support eight organisations from across Canberra and the surrounding south eastern NSW region.
