Bass Coast Shire Council offers grants of up to $100 to help celebrate and recognise the valuable contributions of volunteers.

National Volunteer Week highlights the vital role of volunteers and encouraging more people to get involved. This year's theme, 'Your Year to Volunteer', celebrates the power of volunteering to build meaningful connections, strengthen communities, and create a sense of belonging.

Whether you're planning a small gathering or a larger event, this funding can help bring your ideas to life. Be creative and celebrate your volunteers in a way that suits your group.

If your group is not a not-for-profit Incorporated group, you are not eligible to apply. However, we may be able to connect you with an eligible group to share an event. To discuss this option, please call Shirley Egan, Community Strengthening and Grants Officer, on 0435 205 816.
