The Lord Mayor’s Better Suburbs Grants program supports not-for-profit community organisations to deliver projects and activities across the city and to maintain, improve and develop community facilities.

The program comprises two categories.

Community Facility Category

The Community Facility Category provides funding to improve, develop and maintain community facilities, with preference provided to Council community-leased facilities. Funding is available for both the planning and design, and construction, phases of projects.

Community Support Category

The Community Support Category provides funding to support projects that respond to local community needs, improve community facilities and build organisational capacity. There are two rounds each year.

Funding

For the Community Facility Category you can apply for grant funding ranging from $10,000 to $200,000.

The Community Support Category offers grant funding up to $10,000.
