Published: 16 May 2024 10:44am

With only two weeks left, Wagga Wagga City Council is urging not-for-profit groups in the local government area to apply for the 2024 round of ClubGRANTS Category One Funding.

Applications will close on Friday 31 May 2024 at 5pm.

ClubGRANTS allows registered clubs with annual gaming machine revenue exceeding one-million dollars to allocate a portion of these funds to support community initiative, programs, and services.

The participating clubs for the Wagga Wagga Local Government area are the Wagga RSL Club and Rules Club Wagga Wagga.

The main priorities for the 2024 funding are:

  • Mental health
  • Prevention and support of homelessness
  • Domestic and family violence
  • First Nations programs

Other funding priorities identified include women and family health, childcare services, aged and veteran services, all-abilities programs, disadvantaged young people, transport services for identified social needs, and sustainable living and housing.

Last year, 11 local not-for-profit community groups and charities shared in $147,550 in ClubGRANTS funding.

Apply for funding now!

If you have a development or support project that could benefit from a funding boost, don’t forget to submit an application before 5pm on Friday 31 May 2024.

Applications for the 2024 scheme can be made online.
