KINGSTON: Grants boosted to $220,000
Kingston Council ’s support for community will grow in 2025, with our Charitable Fund and Bi-annual Grants programs now open for applications.
These programs apply across health, welfare, sport, recreation, arts, culture, education, and the environment.
The Kingston Charitable Fund is growing from $72,000 to 11 charities to just over $220,000 in 2024-25. The Community Bi-annual Grants program will support 40 not-for-profit organisations and individuals in Kingston.
Kingston Mayor Cr Georgina Oxley (Pictured) said we have an incredible community here in Kingston and we are super proud to be in a position to support the many local groups and individuals making this such a special place to live.
“These programs were established to enable partnerships between Council and our community to address needs, support initiatives that strengthen community participation, development and inclusion, and foster support,” Cr Oxley said.
“This is all about building stronger, more connected neighbourhoods by investing in those working so hard to meet community need, especially in these challenging times, so I strongly encourage you to apply.”
Applications close on Friday, February 21.
There will be grant writing and information sessions.
