Small Community Grant
About the Small Community Grant
Coorong District Council’s small community grants aim to encourage and support local community groups/clubs that make a positive contribution to community and cultural life. It is offered to support and assist community-based organisations in the provision of a service to the community that will encourage participation and social inclusion.
Council recognises community groups provide important and valued community and social benefits to the district.
Funding community, cultural and recreational activities, events and services enables individuals and 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 $1,000.
