Community Project Grant

About the Community Project Grant

The Coorong District Council Community Project Grant aims to support local community groups/clubs that make a positive contribution to community through projects that develop and enhance their group’s facilities.

Council recognises community groups provide important and valued community and social benefits to the district.

Funding community projects enables groups to work in partnership with Council in meeting community needs. The program also supports communities that value creativity, innovation, access and participation.

Community Organisations can apply for up to $5,000.
