Fifty-two community organisations across north Brisbane are about to receive a significant boost, with a total of $200,000 in grants set to be awarded by the Kedron-Wavell Services Club in Chermside.
A Lifeline for Local Initiatives
The funding comes from Kedron-Wavell’s annual Community Grants program, which is designed to support the groups doing essential work in the local area. After a competitive application period, the chosen recipients will receive individual grants of up to $10,000. These funds will support a wide variety of local causes, including animal welfare, disability support, multicultural programs, environmental projects, and local sports clubs.
The program aims to strengthen connections within the community and support the organisations that make Brisbane’s northside a more inclusive place to live. The club’s leadership has stated that this initiative is a core part of its commitment to giving back to the community it serves.
The Final Reveal
The application window for the 2025 grants ran from May 1 until July 31, drawing interest from a broad range of not-for-profit groups. Now, the successful applicants are set to be formally recognised.
A special presentation will be held to celebrate the grant recipients on Tuesday, September 16, 2025. The event is scheduled from 10:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. in the Kittyhawk Room at the club’s 21 Kittyhawk Drive location. The organisations will be joined by local representatives as well as the Kedron-Wavell board and senior leadership team for the announcement.
