Empowering Our Community: ClubGRANTS 2024

ClubGRANTS 2024

The ClubGRANTS program, a collaboration between local clubs and the NSW government, plays an essential role in community development by providing much-needed funding for projects that directly benefit the local population. This year, the Canterbury-Bankstown ClubGRANTS Committee received an overwhelming 301 grant applications, with requests totalling more than $7 million from community groups in need of support. After a rigorous evaluation process, 97 deserving projects were selected for support, resulting in a collective investment of over $2.5 million from 12 clubs throughout the Local Government Area (LGA).

Revesby Workers’ Club took pride in contributing to 15 of these community projects, focusing on a diverse range of sectors that meet the needs of vulnerable groups and enhance community well-being. The funded initiatives span across vital areas such as, Community Welfare and Social Services, Family Support, Community Health Services and Health Promotion Initiatives, Community Education and Development, Aged, Disability, and Youth Services.

These contributions align with Revesby Workers’ Club’s core mission to give back to the community in meaningful ways and the Club continues to be a strong advocate for community-driven projects and remains committed to making a difference in the lives of Canterbury-Bankstown residents through sustainable investment in local initiatives to build a healthier, more inclusive, and supportive community.
