Celebrating Volunteer Week With Grants to support local volunteers

Federal Member for Nicholls, Sam Birrell MP, says 21 organisations across Nicholls will receive more than $66,000 in grant funding to support the work of volunteers.

The money is being delivered through the Volunteer Grants program, with offered grants of between $1,000 and $5,000 to support the efforts of volunteers and increase participation.

“I was very pleased to support the grants to these organisations,” Mr Birrell said.

“While the grants are small, the impact is much bigger, and come at a good time for organisations that are rebuilding their volunteer base following the pandemic.”

“During the last few years sporting clubs and community organisations have suffered a lot of disruption and this funding will help to rebuild, reconnect and provide support.”

The grants can be used to purchase equipment to support volunteer activities or cover training and travel.
