The Strengthening Rural Communities (SRC) program aims to give the thousands of small rural, regional and remote communities across Australia an opportunity to access funding to support broad community needs.
Given the events of summer 2019/20, it has also been expanded to offer funding to support recovery in bushfire-affected communities.
Grants are available for a broad range of grassroots, community-led initiatives that directly and clearly benefit local communities. Applications are accepted on an ongoing basis and assessed quarterly.
This round, grants up to $10,000 are available through the Small & Vital Stream, and grants up to $25,000 are available through the Bushfire Recovery Stream.
Round 12 now open, applications close 5pm AEDT 22 February 2021.
Providing support for people undertaking projects that will make a positive difference to the natural living environment, in land, sea or air, rural or urban. The Wettenhall Environment Trust supports grassroots organisations and individuals, and academics who are working with on-ground community groups.
The expression of interest process opens regularly throughout the year. For more information head to the website https://wettenhall.org.au/grants/small-environmental-grants/.
