Round 2 of Maranoa Regional Council’s Community Grants Program is now open! Community and not-for-profit groups are invited to apply for financial assistance to help fund an activity, project or event

The Community Grants Program is a great opportunity for groups to undertake projects with the support of Council and Senex Energy.

The Community Grant categories are:
• Small Grant (co-funded by Senex Energy) – $500 - $3,000
• Community Grant – $3,001 - $10,000.
• Major Grant – $10,001 - $20,000.

Council recognises the importance of community groups and the valuable contribution they make to the enhancement, enrichment, and liveability of communities in the Maranoa. Council is committed to supporting groups by providing grants for one-off projects in the following categories: Community Development, Culture and Heritage, Environment, Community Events, Sport and Recreation and Economic Development.

Mayor Tyson Golder said Community Grants give Maranoa community groups a helping hand for their projects, events, and upgrades.

“I encourage all community groups to engage with this opportunity. It’s a fantastic way to upgrade facilities, improve skills and provide further learning - all of which has great benefits to the Maranoa community,” Cr Golder said.

Tips, guidelines and application forms for the Community Grants Program are available on Council’s grant page here.

The application period closes on Friday, 31 March 2023. This is the second round of the 2022/23 year.
