Possible Sources of External Funding

Local community organisations and clubs are constantly raising funds for their operation and maintaining their facilities. At times assistance is needed through various grants that are available to not for profit organisations and while Council can provide limited assistance through our Community Donations and Grants Programs, we recommend that clubs also apply for other external grants.

The following websites may be useful in locating current funding programs, guidelines and application forms:

• www.grantslink.gov.au - for links to most current funding programs in Australia
• www.qld.gov.au/grants - for links to most current funding programs in Queensland
• www.olgr.qld.gov.au/grants - for Gambling Community Benefit Fund and Jupiter's Casino Community Benefit Fund

Council's Community Development Officer, David Hayward can be contacted on 0428 719 083 for advice on completing application forms and possible funding programs that may be available.
