Community funding available

LOCAL organisations have until March 31 to apply for their share of $50,000 grant funding available for charitable projects that build capacity in the Limestone Coast.

Made possible through a funding partnership between the Stand Like Stone Foundation and OneForty One Plantations, the program has distributed $80,000 to eight charitable projects across the region to date.

In recognition of the many worthy project ideas submitted for consideration, OneFortyOne Plantations has committed to further funding of $50,000 per annum for the next three years.

To be eligible, projects must have a charitable benefit and will be assessed on their ability to grow communities and progress them towards self-sustainability.

Application close at 5pm on March 31.

Visit www.standlikestone.com.au for more information.
