Volunteer organisations across the Hunter can now express their interest for a Government grant that can be spent over the next financial year.
Grants from $1000 to $5000 are being offered to fund a variety of equipment and resources that community groups may need.
Lyne MP Dr David Gillespie believes that volunteers embody the best of the community, with individuals working hard to improve life for many. The program aims to help and encourage these groups to continue their endeavors.
Dr Gillespie said that a variety of clubs would be able to use this grant, including sporting clubs, Rotary clubs and Lion clubs.
To apply and for more information, organisations head to grants.gov.au.
