Big ideas for<br />

community<br />

Locals are being urged<br />

to get involved in the<br />

NSW Government’s My<br />

Community Project grant<br />

program, which provides<br />

an opportunity for anyone<br />

to propose a community<br />

project that will enhance<br />

their local area. The $24.4<br />

million program will deliver<br />

community-driven projects<br />

valued between $20,000<br />

and $200,000 across the<br />

State. Examples of projects<br />

could include community<br />

gardens, safe and inclusive<br />

playgrounds, walking paths<br />

or ramps to improve access,<br />

and community events.<br />

Individuals who propose<br />

a project must develop the<br />

idea with a sponsor – such<br />

as Council, schools or P&C<br />

associations, incorporated<br />

Progress and Residents’<br />

associations, or registered<br />

charities – who can assist<br />

with expertise and help<br />

deliver the project. Local<br />

MP Rob Stokes said anyone<br />

with a project idea should<br />

contact an eligible sponsor<br />

to see if they were willing<br />

to support the project,<br />

then visit the program<br />

webpage to complete the<br />

application and submit<br />

it by 2pm on Wednesday<br />

15 <strong>May</strong>. Applicants and<br />

sponsors will be notified<br />

if their project progresses<br />

to the public vote.<br />
