Are you seeking financial support for a project in your community? Our grants program is a helping hand to those in need, to get a great community project or initiative over the line.

Community Fund applications are now open until Friday 27 March 2020! If you’d like to apply, see more details under ‘How do I get involved?’ below.

Queensland has been doing it tough recently. If your project is supporting the community to get back on their feet following bushfires, drought, summer storm damage, or any other severe weather impacts, we’re particularly keen to get behind you.  You might be targeting community resilience and mental health, environmental offset and repair, or the rebuilding of community hubs, halls and dens.

We’re also looking for ideas that encourage community identity and wellbeing, support local prosperity, and are innovative, or enable access to future solutions.

This year the People’s Choice bonus is up for grabs again, giving you the opportunity to receive an additional $5,000 in funding!

All successful applicants will have their project profiled online, so that the whole community can view and vote for their favourite. The project with the most votes will receive the additional funding to help realise their dreams. That means you could receive up to $10,000 in total!

We are committed to supporting not-for-profit organisations and groups who are working hard to provide lasting benefits to our local communities. It’s all about supporting organisations that, like us, work to make their communities a better place to live.

Meet our past recipients and view their projects.

Our Community Fund is now open! Apply online before 5pm Friday 27 March 2020 – don’t miss out! Check out our latest Community Fund Brochure (PDF 2.0 mb) to find out how the program works.
