The Community Grants Program supports not-for-profit organisations and community-based groups to deliver projects and events that build Wyndham’s community capacity and contribute to community strengthening & enhance the liveability, health and wellbeing of Wyndham community.
The program offers simple, broad categories and funding streams, allowing community and not-for-profit organisations the opportunity to develop and lead innovative projects that will further support and strengthen the community that aligns with the Wyndham 2050 Community Vision and supports Wyndham’s ongoing recovery.
The program also provides scholarships to individual residents to support national and international level competition participation, practicing local artists, cultural performers and for local leadership development, and to schools in support of students experiencing hardship impacting their education and social relations at school.
The Community Grants Program is aligned to council’s Wyndham 2050 Community Vision, the Council Plan, and the many other Strategies and Plans council has developed in consultation with the Wyndham community.
