Community Sponsorship Funding Round is Open

Published on 18 April 2019

Baw Baw Shire Council is receiving applications for its Community Sponsorship funding stream in its final round for the financial year.

Community Sponsorship offers financial support to local individuals and groups to run local events, projects and programs that benefit our local community.

Council is seeking applications for suitable activities that support Council’s community development priorities in the Council Plan. Activities must occur after 30 June 2019.

Community Sponsorship is a part of Council’s broader Community Financial Assistance Program that invests more than $630,000 into projects delivered by the community. Council has so far invested $55,450 in the 2018/19 financial year under this stream.

Community groups, committees or individuals living or working in the Shire are encouraged to apply.

The round will close on 12 May 2019.
