Ninety locally-led initiatives that are set to strengthen remote, rural and regional communities across Australia are sharing in $1,057,044 in funding, thanks to FRRR’s Strengthening Rural Communities (SRC) grant program.
FRRR has awarded $200,000 to 11 locally-led community initiatives that will provide mental health and wellbeing support for remote, rural and regional communities.
FRRR is encouraging local volunteer emergency services groups serving rural communities affected by the 2019/20 bushfires to apply now for the second round of Volunteer Emergency Services Fund program grants.
Have your say to help us understand how community groups and not-for-profits in remote, rural and regional Australia are faring – survey opens Monday 30 August.
FRRR is seeking partners to join us and the Australian Government in co-funding the Future Drought Fund’s Networks to Build Drought Resilience program.
Our SRC program provides flexible funding so community leaders can address whatever issues they face. This could range from enhancing local community meeting places to providing resources for a kinder, or even transport for the elderly.
We acknowledge and extend our deep respect and appreciation to the Dja Dja Wurrung People, the Traditional Custodians of the land on which our Foundation is located in Bendigo, and to the Traditional Custodians of the lands on which our programs are assessed and delivered.
We pay respect to their ancient and continuing cultures, their connections to the land, sea and sky and to the Elders, past, present and emerging.
