Tender Description
Council’s Donations Program supports not-for-profit groups and organisations that demonstrate strong local involvement or deliver projects with significant community benefit. Eligible applicants may receive up to $2,000 per financial year.
The program is open year-round, with applications assessed quarterly. Applying early in the financial year is encouraged, as it allows successful applicants to plan ahead and make the most of the funding.
Applications are reviewed by Council staff based on the eligibility criteria and assessment guidelines outlined in the policy documents below. Recommendations are then presented to the elected Council for consideration. Reports are submitted as needed, depending on the volume of applications received.
Take a moment to read our Funding from Council Policy(PDF, 551KB) to ensure your group and project are eligible, and our Donations program guidelines(PDF, 1MB), which detail the eligibility and assessment criteria and application process of the Donations Program.
Confirmed dates for Council’s review of applications will be listed in the table below once available.
