The ACT Government 2020-21 Community Support and Infrastructure Grant program opens today, supporting ACT community organisations to deliver programs and services effectively and efficiently for the benefit of the ACT community.
A total of $200,000 is available through the grants program. Individual organisations can apply for up to $10,000 to build infrastructure, purchase equipment and deliver programs and services.

“These grants support community organisations to continue delivering services and programs that provide great benefit to the community.
“These have been designed to reach a wide group of community organisations with varied needs and goals. I encourage any organisation with an idea or project to consider applying,” said Minister Stephen-Smith.
