Community Grants Program

This year Council has changed the criteria for awarding funds under the Community Grants Program.

Council is inviting funding applications from non-profit community groups or organisations for services and projects that support the outcomes to be achieved under FuturesPlan20: A twenty year vision for the City of Canada Bay.

FuturesPlan20 (FP20) expresses the City's vision to be innovative, dynamic and sustainable through active partnership with the community and the environment.  FP20 was developed in 2008 in consultation with community members on what they would like the City to look and feel like over the next 20 years in order to achieve an engaged, green, healthy, liveable, moving, prosperous and vibrant City.

Information regarding FuturesPlan20 is located on Council's website.

Applicants must still be non-profit groups or organisations that are based within the Council area or provide services and activities within the area.  Applicants must demonstrate how their service or project helps to achieve one (or possibly more) of the outcomes listed within FP20.

The Community Grants program is advertised throughout April and May each year.  Applicants will be informed of the outcome of their applications in late August to early September 2012.
