Shire of Cunderdin Community Grants
The Shire of Cunderdin is pleased to announce that Community Grants are now open for applications, closing 23 September 2025. These grants provide funding for innovative projects or events that respond to community needs—whether for the whole community or specific groups such as sporting clubs, children, youth, seniors, people with disabilities, or culturally and linguistically diverse communities. Designed for ad hoc and smaller-scale initiatives, the funding supports a variety of purposes including one-off community events, projects addressing identified needs, small equipment purchases, or minor capital works. All projects must take place within the Shire of Cunderdin and deliver significant benefits to our community, with up to 20% of the total funding permitted for catering costs.
Below is the link to the Grants Guidelines and the Grant Application Form. Please contact Community Development Officer - Mackenzie Elliott (mackenzie.elliott@cunderdin.wa.gov.au) to discuss your project prior to submitting your application.
