Community Grants Awarded 

As part of our Australia Day Celebrations, Certificates were presented to the representatives of the various community groups that were successful in receiving Community Grant Funding from Council for 2022/23 Financial Year. Successful applicants have shared in $25,000 in community funding and in-kind support this financial year. In addition to this funding, the Myponga Memorial Community Centre were granted $25,000, the Yankalilla Memorial Park were also granted $25,000 and $17,000 was granted to the Arts and Creativity Grants Program.

This Annual Program provides incredible value across the community and the next round of Community Grant Applications will open again later in the year for the 2023/24 Financial Year.
