One time funding for Community Partners
United Way Glenelg’s Community Fund Grants are designed to spark local solutions and strengthen what makes our community thrive. Guided by our mission to mobilise people and resources so everyone can flourish, these grants invest in projects that create real and lasting impact across the Glenelg Shire.
Our focus areas shape where funding goes: building community resilience, creating opportunities for youth, supporting financial stability, promoting healthy communities, and empowering healthy ageing. By backing initiatives in these priority areas, we’re helping local people and organisations drive change that improves lives today and creates a stronger tomorrow.
Limited to amounts of $5,000 per project.Â
