“It’s a significant investment, and we know from experience that this money has the potential to have some really wide-ranging benefits across our community.\

“Warrnambool is home to so many passionate individuals and groups, and we want to help them use that passion to make Warrnambool a better place for everyone.

“At the session, our staff will be on hand to discuss your project with you, one-on-one, and offer tailored advice.

“Each grant program has its own funding priorities, and this session can help you understand how your project aligns with these priorities and guidelines so you can submit a strong application.”
