Four local groups are the lucky recipients of the latest round of Member for Nanango Deb Frecklington’s “Local Hero Grants”.

Round 22 was announced this week.

Mrs Frecklington said the grants would go to groups ranging from supporting homeless services, to sporting groups and campdrafting.

“These are modest but meaningful grants of $250 to help clubs achieve those smaller projects,” Mrs Frecklington said.

The Local Hero Grants are now in their ninth year and are designed to provide small donations to not-for-profit community groups and individuals from across the Nanango Electorate.

The Round 22 recipients are:

  • South Burnett Support Alliance – To support “The Meals Project”
  • Western Stars Cali Dance Studio – Supporting the growth of calisthenics in the South Burnett
  • Kingaroy Netball Club – Supporting netball
  • Kilcoy Campdraft – Ribbons and awards for junior riders in novelty events

“I would like to congratulate the successful groups and encourage other interested organisations to apply in the next round of funding which closes on August 31,” Mrs Frecklington said.

“If you would like to apply, please go to www.debfrecklington.com.au or contact the Nanango Electorate office on (07) 4190-7100 for the guidelines.”
