ClubGRANTS is one of Australia’s largest grant programs, providing more than $100 million in cash each year to a variety of groups and causes, including sporting organisations, charities and not-for-profit bodies, across New South Wales.
Council is a member of the Shoalhaven Local Committee which supports in facilitating and administering the application process for grants in Category 1 across the city.
The Committee also includes representatives from the NSW Department of Communities and Justice, Illawarra Shoalhaven Local Health District, Shoalhaven Neighbourhood Services, and registered local licensed clubs.
ClubGRANTS applications can be lodged online via the Clubs NSW website from 1 February until 31 May 2025.
