Cardinia Shire Council has opened expressions of interest for Category Two (Partnership Grants) as part of the 2025-26 Community Capital Works Grants Program.
The Community Capital Works Grants Program assists community groups in improving community facilities, strengthening local networks and supporting community well-being.
In Category Two (Partnership Grants), grants of up to $35,000 are available for capital works on council-owned or Crown land in Cardinia Shire, with contributions from applicants.
Past grant recipients include the Koo Wee Rup Cricket Club, which secured grant funding for an LED electronic scoreboard, and the Gembrook Pre School Association which used grant funding to upgrade the children’s bathroom.
Applicants can express interest in the Partnership Grants online at https://cardinia.smartygrants.com.au/
Expression of interest applications will close 5pm, Tuesday 3 December 2024.
Formal applications for the 2025-26 Community Capital Works Grants program (including supported Category Two Partnership Grants applications) will be open from January to March 2025.
