Applications for Cardinia Shire Council’s community capital works and community wellbeing support grant programs for 2022-23 are now open.

The community capital works grant program assists community groups to improve facilitates, while the community wellbeing support grant program aims to help establish new organisations, projects and services.

Cardinia Shire Mayor Jeff Springfield said the grants will aid community groups and help establish new organisations and projects within the shire.

“Through these annual grant programs, Council is proud to support local community groups in their vital role of helping to develop healthy, active and socially connected communities,” Cr Springfield said.

“I encourage all eligible local not-for-profit organisations to apply for this year’s grant programs.”
