In 2020, one of the recipients was The Nest Community, a self-funded organisation designed to create and nurture a sustainable and connected community for women. The Nest received $7,500 that they used to help fund their flagship program, “The Exchange Program.
Another recipient was the Gunyah Lapidary Club in Wavell Heights, which will use a $5,000 grant to update their Club house with new showcases to display the large collection of rocks, gems and crystals that they have.
Meanwhile, Kedron-Wavell’s Board of Directors will be in charge of reviewing, assessing, and approving all the applications. The process can take up to six weeks, but the club assures they will contact the applicants regardless of the outcome.
Applications will close on 31 July 2021. Applications can be directed to Club’s General Manager, sent via email to rants@kedron-wavell.com.au or submitted electronically on the Community Grants website. Further details about the application process can be found at grants.kedron-wavell.com.au.
