April 21st, 2023New community grants round opens

The Hepburn Shire Council has announced that Round 4 of its community grants program is now open until Friday 28 April. 

If you’re part of a community group or not for profit organisation and are looking to fund a new project, the council says it wants to hear from you!

Categories include:
 Active and Engaged Communities
 Quality Community Infrastructure (including small equipment)
 Sustainable Environments
 Children’s Program (specifically for 8 – 12 years)
 Charitable Purposes

Providing an example of the sorts of things grants may go towards, Daylesford Men’s Shed (some of whose members are pictured above) received a grant to create and install Christmas trees along Vincent Street in Daylesford last year.

Those keen to lodge an application are being urged by the council to “take a look at the guidelines and apply on our website.”
