Explore Councils by state
The next round of Community Impact Grants have opened as Wodonga councillors unanimously approved recommendations for February's round of recipients.
The February round was put on hold due to COVID-19.
There were three different types of grants which the community could apply for, including Community impact Grants, Community Impact Infrastructure Grants and Community Impact Partnership Program Grants.
Cr Brian Mitchell and Cr John Watson said there were many deserving organisations had applied.
"There are some very wrothy and hard-working clubs and organisations who have applied," he said.
Mayor Cr Anna Speedie echoed Cr Danny Lowe's sentiment that the funding stretched further when community groups were involved.
"We are a better community for having these groups out there," she said.
The next round of Community Impact Grants is now open.
