Tom Venning MP is pleased to announce that Expressions of Interest (EOIs) are now open in Grey for Round 10 of the Stronger Communities Programme and invites eligible local organisations to put forward suitable projects for consideration.

The programme provides grants for projects that strengthen local communities, improve community infrastructure and encourage greater community participation. Grants are available from $2,500 up to $20,000, for projects with a total cost of no more than $50,000.

The Stronger Communities Programme Round 10 Grant Guidelines are linked below, as well as a factsheet and FAQ for your reference.

Under the programme, EOIs are considered as part of a local community consultation process. Projects identified through that process are then nominated to the Department of Industry, Science and Resources, which assesses eligibility and invites eligible organisations to submit a formal grant application. Final funding decisions are made through the Australian Government grant process.  

It is important to review the Grant Guidelines first to ensure your organisation and project are eligible as part of this grant round.

Please contact the Grey Electorate Office on 1300 301 742 or at Tom.Venning.MP@aph.gov.au if you need any assistance.
