2024-25 Volunteer Grants are now open!

Volunteer Grants support the work of local community organisations.

The Paterson electorate has been allocated $66,225 for the 2024-25 Volunteer Grants program.

Grants of between $1,000 and $5,000 are available to help community organisations to support their volunteers.

This year, changes have been made to the Volunteer Grants program and there are two categories which reflect areas of high demand for volunteer organisations:

• Category 1: for communications and IT items (such as laptops, phones, payment devices and software), and paying for insurance premiums.
• Category 2: for items and services that support the development and well-being of children and young people under 18.

More information on the eligibility criteria can be found in the Grant Opportunity Guidelines.

Expression of Interests close at 5:00pm on Friday 20 December 2024.  

If you have any questions, please contact my office on 4983 2401.
