ONEFORTYONE is celebrating the community groups supported by their PINE Community Grants Program over the past financial year.<\/p>\n
Throughout the past year, the forestry and sawmilling company has provided more than $100,000 in grants to a diverse range of organisations, including schools, environmental groups, and social services.<\/p>\n
OneFortyOne Corporate Affairs Manager Charlene Riley said the program has provided support to local organisations that are doing a lot with a little.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe community groups we support continue to amaze us with their dedication and resourcefulness,\u201d Charlene said.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe can provide a small boost, but it\u2019s the people that drive these projects that make a big impact in our community.\u201d<\/p>\n
OneFortyOne\u2019s Guidelines for Giving also outline that projects should involve partnerships and leverage financial and\/or in-kind contributions.<\/p>\n
“We want to support programs that have the potential to become self-sustaining,\u201d Charlene said.<\/p>\n
As part of the application process, organisations must describe which PINE (people, ideas, nature, education) objective their project most aligns with.<\/p>\n
Charlene noted that most applications they receive fit into the people and education categories.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe\u2019re also looking to be a part of more nature-based projects, so if you have something in mind, check out our website for more information and the application form,\u201d Charlene said.<\/p>\n
The OneFortyOne PINE Community Grants program is open year-round, with applications reviewed every couple of months, aligning with the South East Seasonal Calendar.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
