Community Infrastructure Funding

May 10, 2018 by Maggi Barnard

Member for Orange, Philip Donato MP, announced applications are now open for the 2018 Community Building Partnership Program, unlocking $30 million for community infrastructure projects across NSW.

Philip said $330,000 is available for projects in each NSW electorate, including the Orange Electorate, and urged local councils and not-for-profit groups to apply for the funds they need to deliver projects with social, environmental and recreational outcomes.

“Local sports clubs, charities, men’s sheds and scouts are just some of the groups that benefit from this program.

“If your organisation or club needs extra funding for the building, refurbishment or enhancement of facilities, then I’d strongly encourage you to apply.

“This is a great opportunity to get the support your community group needs to make real improvements in the places you meet, train or recreate,” said Philip.

Applications opened on Monday, 7th May and close at 5pm on Friday, 15th June 2018. Applicants must read the program guidelines to ensure their club or organisation and proposed project are eligible.
