Published on 27 June 2025

Edward River Council is excited to announce the launch of its 2025 Community Grants Program, opening on 1 July and offering grants of up to $3,000 to support local projects that strengthen and uplift the Edward River community.

Whether it’s a cultural initiative, a community event, or a project that enhances liveability in the region, Council wants to hear from the passionate individuals and organisations who make Edward River such a vibrant place to live.

Edward River Council is calling on community groups and not-for-profit organisations to apply and help bring great ideas to life. The program is designed to fund projects that:

• Enhance liveability in the Edward River region

• Meet cultural needs and aspirations

• Build and strengthen community prosperity

• Are ready to roll!

This year, the application process is easier than ever, thanks to a streamlined online application form available on the Edward River Council website.

Applicants needing support can reach out to Grants Officer Ellie Danckert at ellie.danckert@edwardriver.nsw.gov.au

Council encourages anyone with a great idea to take that next step and apply. Don’t miss this opportunity to make a real impact in your community.
