Ag company Nutrien has partnered with the Foundation for Rural & Regional Renewal to offer eligible not-for-profit groups a share in a $250,000 Community Grants Program.
The initiative aims to strengthen small rural and regional communities by offering up to $5000 to groups who are carrying out meaningful activities in their region.
Nutrien spokesperson Madeleine Muirhead said the program was designed to strengthen grassroots organisations and communities that have demonstrated a meaningful connection to the agricultural sector.
“At Nutrien, we have a long-standing commitment to Australian farmers. For them to succeed, they must work alongside communities that are vibrant, resilient and thriving for the long term. This
program reinforces that ongoing work,” Ms Muirhead said.
“Over the last five years, we’ve supported more than 260 community projects.
“This translates to more than $1.25 million in funding for important rural efforts, including programs to engage young Australians in meaningful career pathways, and important small infrastructure projects like maintaining local community hubs.”
