Mackellar Community Grants A community panel recommends a number of community grant applications in Mackellar each year, administered through Sophie's electoral office. In 2023 40 local groups were collectively awarded more than $230,000, via the Government's Volunteer Grants and Stronger Communities Programme. “Volunteers and community groups make such a positive contribution. It is my pleasure to help support volunteers and community groups who generously support our community and make Mackellar such a caring and vibrant place to live and work.” Dr Sophie Scamps Volunteer Grants support the work of local community organisations by reducing barriers for volunteers and increasing participation in volunteering. Annual grants of between $1,000 - $5,000 are available to assist eligible not-for-profit community organisations that rely on volunteers. Grants can be used to purchase communication or insurance items and/or purchase items or services to assist volunteers or volunteer-run activities that support the well-being and development of children (under 18). A total pool of $66,225 has been allocated to Mackellar for 2024-25. Expressions of interest (EOI) recently lodged for the 2024–25 Volunteer Grants will soon be assessed. The Mackellar community organisations recommended as potential applicants will be contacted in early March 2025. Stronger Communities Programme grants of between $2,500 - $20,000 are potentially available for eligible community projects that encourage and support participation in local projects, improve local community participation and contribute to vibrant and viable communities. Round 9 is now open for Expressions of Interest. Full details appear blow.
