Rural community organisations across Australia are invited to apply for funding to upgrade local hall and community centre facilities through Rabobank’s newly launched Community Hub Improvement Program.
Run annually, the program has an overall pool of $120,000 available.
It provides the opportunity for 12 selected applicants to receive funding of $10,000 each to go towards improvements to their local rural hall or community centre.
To be eligible for consideration, the local hall or community centre must be based in rural Australia, defined as a building or space that is open and accessible to the local community, provide services that the local population wants and needs and be seen as playing a vital role in supporting vibrant and inclusive communities.
As part of the application process, applicants will need to provide details and share photos of how the building is currently used, what they would do with the funds, the community’s contribution to the project and how the proposed improvements would help increase the facility’s usage.
