Applications opened this week for the 2023 Community Building Partnership (CBP) program, with grants available to help make our region a better place to live, work, learn and play. The program invests in infrastructure projects that deliver positive social, environmental and recreational outcomes while promoting community participation, inclusion and cohesion.
Since 2009, the program has awarded more than $436 million to more than 19,700 projects across the state, from access ramps for community halls to resurfacing the local sporting grounds.
Incorporated not-for-profit community organisations and local councils are eligible to apply for grants of between $5,000 and $150,000. In 2023, grants must be for building, refurbishing or repairing community infrastructure, or for buying freestanding equipment or vehicles.
Grant applications close Friday, 27th October 2023 at 5pm. To apply, visit the Community Building Partnership website: nsw.gov.au/cbp
“I strongly encourage local organisations to apply for this much loved program,” Philip Donato MP said.
