Changes to the Community Investment Program
Council recently endorsed some changes to the program guidelines, that will primarily affect applicants seeking fee waivers.
From August 2023, the following options are available:
1. For those that meet the eligibility criteria for Community Connect or Creative and are seeking a fee waiver only (no cash component), please apply through the new Fee Support pathway. This process supersedes the old Rapid Response pathway.
2. For those that meet the eligibility criteria for Community Connect or Creative and are seeking a fee waiver plus cash, please continue to apply during open rounds, in line with the dates above. Requests for cash grants are accepted during open rounds only.
A number of other minor changes have been made to the Community Investment Program. All applicants are advised to familiarise themselves with the new Guidelines, which can be found here for Connect and here for Creative.
