Got an UN-SMALL idea to help your community?
Our annual Community Grants Program supports local organisations working to make our communities safer.
Since the program began in 2003, we've invested $3.6 million into over 1,000 community projects across Australia.
Community organisations can apply for grants of up to $5,000 (including GST) for road safety, crime prevention, environmental, or emergency readiness and response initiatives.
For more information check out our FAQs or read about some of our previous Community Grants recipients.
Applications for the 2009 Community Grants Program have now closed. The 2009 grant recipients will be announced soon!
