Applications are now open for the 2019/2020
Communities Environment Program

 

The program will provide $22.65 million in funding to support small scale ($2,500 to $20,000), on-ground projects that aim to conserve, protect and manage our environment.

The program seeks to support community groups—including those that may not be able to compete in larger and more competitive grant programs—to address local environmental priorities. The program also seeks to encourage the community to connect with their local natural environment and to build and strengthen local communities.
