Applications are now open for the 2019 Ergon-Energex Community Fund. (Download Brochure Here)

Queensland has been doing it tough over the last year – flood, fire, drought, severe storms and cyclones have taken a big toll from Torres Strait to the Tweed and all points in between.

We’re particularly keen to hear from community groups who are working to support communities impacted by these adversities to get back on their feet. We’ll also look for projects that facilitate innovative solutions to local issues, boost local economic activity or support a community’s identity and wellbeing.

More than $100,000 in funding is available to not-for-profit community groups and like organisations across the state whose project needs a helping hand to get them across the line. Individual grants of up to $5,000 are available and this year, the people’s choice bonus will see one lucky recipient receive an additional $5,000 funding. That means $10,000 total is up for grabs!

Application is made online at www.ergon.com.au/communityfund and will close 5pm, Monday 8 April.

The Community Fund  team is available at communityfund@ergon.com.au  for more information or queries.
