Volunteers give so much to our community, and it's only fair we give back for what they do.
The Federal Government's Volunteer Grants will fund volunteer organisation with more than 40% volunteers, with purchase of eligible equipment and activities ranging from $1000 to a maximum of $5,000.
The focus this year is on Youth volunteers and children. Grants can be used for the first time to purchase communication/insurance items, and purchase items to assist volunteers or volunteer-run activities that support the well-being and development of children (under 18).
Volunteer organisations are nominated by your local Member of Parliament.
