Groups urged to apply

COMMUNITY groups in the City of Casey have been urged to see if they are eligible to apply for one of the three grant programs which are now open for applications.
The council will now take applications for the Community Grants, Environmental Sustainability Grants and Community Service Contributions Program from Thursday 26 March until 5pm on Friday 1 May.
City of Casey mayor Mick Morland encouraged groups throughout the municipality to see if they can apply.
“Each year the council provides a number of opportunities for local organisations and community groups to access funds to support the work they do within the Casey community,” he said.
“The programs are designed for different purposes and to target the many different groups, organisations, businesses, centres and not-for-profit organisations based in Casey or those that do work which supports and benefits the local community.”
