Community clubs, groups and organisations in Wyndham could be in the running for a timely funding boost thanks to a new grants scheme offered by Werribee Rotary.
Grants of up to $3000 are now on offer with submissions open until October and successful applicants announced in November.
The grants scheme, which is in its inaugural year, is the brainchild of
Werribee Rotary past-president Robert Fava.
Mr Fava said the idea behind the grants was to provide Wyndham’s clubs and organisations more practical assistance.
“Really it’s about Werribee Rotary giving back to the community in a robust and way and a financial way to try and help grant recipients in a more meaningful fashion.”
Mr Fava said being a community organisation based in Wyndham was the only criteria.
‘Whether it’s a local community group, a scout group, a refugee group, a sports club, anyone that may need a little bit of financial assistance to get a project off the ground or finalised is urged to apply.”
