ELIGIBLE community groups and organisations could receive up to $5000 from Bayswater council for projects or programs that support the local community.
The City is offering up to half the funds required for projects that support community connection, health and wellbeing or vulnerable people in the Bayswater community as part of the Better Bayswater grants.
Successful applicants can match the City’s contribution with cash, in-kind support such as volunteering, or a combination of both.
Last round, not-for-profit organisation Spear Foundation received funding for its Everlasting Elders program.
Everlasting Elders focuses on re-kindling connections between Aboriginal Elders and youth to strengthen cultural ties for future generations.
Grant funding allowed the organisation to facilitate an art therapy session where Elders and Guildford Grammar School students collaborated to create artworks exploring their connection to Country and each other.
