If you are such a group then you may have an activity or event planned or have some other need that may qualify for a grant. I encourage you to apply for a grant.

If you don’t you will not qualify, if you do you may. It is worth the time and effort to have a go.

There are two funding categories:

• Community grants : Organisations, *individuals and community groups are encouraged to apply for funding of up to $4,000 for projects and/or programs that demonstrate benefits to the Unley community in the categories of recreation, art and culture, community, community health and wellbeing, and environment.

• Festivals and events : Organisations, *individuals and community groups are encouraged to apply for funding of up to $3,000 for an event or festival that demonstrates social, environmental, economic and cultural benefits to the Unley local government area.

The next round of funding closes at 5 pm on Tuesday, 31 March 2015.

For further information and/or to download the guidelines for each category or the application forms go to our website or contact Pam Hocking on phone 8372 5108 or Matthew Ives on phone 8372 5134 for further information. They are happy to assist you in how best to apply.

Thank you for what you do for our community. Let us show our gratitude in a fiscal way. You deserve it.
