Grants of up to $2000 are available for small projects and applicants are encouraged to seek guidance on eligibility through TCE’s website.<\/p>\n

Each year TCE looks to benefit a cross-section of community groups.<\/p>\n

Recent grant recipients including the Torquay Tornadoes, who received new goalkeeper hockey gear; All Aboard Disability, which acquired a new PA system; and the Torquay Outrigger Canoe Club, which received funding for a new trolley for their boats.<\/p>\n
