Community Grants - support for applicants

Applicant Information and Support Sessions

Council is offering sessions to provide a one-on-one opportunity for each group to meet with a member of the Monash Community Grants Program team to ensure you have the best chance of funding.

It is important to check your eligibility and determine which category is the most appropriate to apply under.

The grants team can also provide you with advice regarding your project and application. It is not essential for applicants to attend one of these workshops, but it is essential to at least speak to a member of the grants team about a proposed application.

Grant Budget Workshops

Grant Budget Workshops will be held on Wednesday 29 January 2025 and Thursday 27 February 2025 to provide applicants with an opportunity to learn how to complete a project budget as part of their application to the MCGP.

Grant Writing Workshops

Monash Council is holding two Effective Grant Writing Workshops, facilitated by Debby Maziarz, on Thursday 6 February 2025 and Tuesday 11 February 2025. These workshops will help applicants understand what is required to successfully apply for and acquit grants.
