Not-for-profit and charity organisations seeking funding for local projects are encouraged to apply for a grant from Newcastle Permanent Charitable Foundation in the current funding round which closes on 28 October.
Charitable Foundation Executive Officer, Graham Batten, is urging all eligible local community-based not-for-profit organisations who are seeking funding for a new or existing project to make their submission before the funding round closes.
“I strongly encourage all charities in regional New South Wales looking to fund projects that address important community issues to apply for a grant from the Foundation.
“Our goal is to support innovative projects that help to rewrite the future for people who are disadvantaged, marginalised or isolated and support social opportunity in our regional communities,” Graham said.
Twice a year the Charitable Foundation provides approximately $800,000 in funding for projects across regional New South Wales.
“We invite all charity organisations who have important community projects and initiatives, new or existing, to apply for a grant.
“Since 2003 we’ve provided over $19 million in funding to 460 community projects and initiatives, all in regional NSW.
“We’re looking forward to continuing our work with regional charities as together we help to improve social and well-being outcomes for community members in need.” Graham said.
