Federal Funding on Offer

Member for Barker Tony Pasin is encouraging non-for-profit organisations and local government organisations in his electorate to apply for grants through the Federal Government’s Stronger Communities Program.

Grants of between $2500 to $20,000 are available for small infrastructure projects encouraging and supporting participation in local initiatives, enhancing community engagement and contributing to the creation of vibrant and sustainable communities.

“The Stronger Communities program is an initiative of the former Coalition Government and since 2015 has provided thousands of organisations across the country with funding for projects that deliver social benefits for local communities,” Mr Pasin said.

“Organisations in Barker have been benefited greatly from previous rounds of Stronger Communities Program delivered under the Former Coalition Government – more than 100 organisations across Barker have shared in $1.2 million in Rounds 1 through 8 of the Stronger Communities program,” Mr Pasin said.

Expressions of Interest for Round 9 of the Stronger Communities program close 5pm, Thursday 13 February 2025.
