I’m now accepting expressions of interest for round six of the Federal Government’s Stronger Communities Programme. With grants of up to $20,000 available, the programme intends to encourage and support participation in local projects, improve local community participation and contribute to vibrant and viable communities. Examples of projects that can be funded under the SCP include the fit out of community centres or the upgrade of sporting facilities.
For more information about the eligibility criteria and to receive an EoI form, please email damian.drum.mp@aph.gov.au or call 03 5821 5371.
I’m pictured here with members of the Colbinabbin Silo Art Trail, who received $10,000 funding for a viewing platform in the last round of SCP funding. #regionsmatter #improud
