The $10 million North East Community Fund gives community groups and organisations the opportunity to deliver exciting new initiatives and projects in Melbourne’s north east, bringing lasting community benefits to areas most impacted by construction.
Free grant writing workshops to help community groups and organisations develop their grant writing skills will be available in 2026 when the next grants and partnerships are open.
During the session you'll learn about:
- understanding the eligibility, assessment criteria, and community priorities
- developing a project description and plan
- creating/building a realistic budget
- demonstrating how the organisation or project participants are impacted by North East Link construction
- articulating a program outcome and evaluation
- responding to the application questions and writing a 50 to 150 word response.
