Community groups and events are being invited to apply for support from the latest round of grants from the Heritage Nanango Community Funding scheme.
The 2022 round opened on Monday (February 14) and will close towards the end of next month.
Application packages can be obtained from the Heritage Community Branch in Drayton Street, Nanango.
Completed forms must be lodged in the “Sponsorship Applications” box inside the branch before 4:00pm on March 25.
All funding for the community grants comes from the profits generated by Heritage Nanango Community Branch, and the board aims to sponsor groups from communities whose population supports Heritage Bank Nanango.
The grants scheme is the largest of its kind in the South Burnett.
In the 20 years since the branch opened in 2002, more than $4.5 million dollars has been distributed back to community groups.
The funding has assisted with everything from obtaining vital infrastructure such as lawn mowers and sound systems through to event co-funding, such as sponsorship of last year’s Nanango Christmas Carnival.
However, organisations which have not yet acquitted a previous grant or sponsorship are not eligible to apply.
Any groups who are unsure if they are eligible should contact the branch on (07) 4164-6173.
