Queensland Attorney-General Yvette D’Ath<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

April 12, 2017<\/strong><\/p>\n

The next four rounds of the Gambling Community Benefit Fund grants will prioritise projects linked to recovery from Tropical Cyclone Debbie.<\/p>\n

Attorney-General Yvette D\u2019Ath said $53 million would be allocated over the next 12 months in four separate GCBF rounds.<\/p>\n

Round 93 opened this week.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe want to provide extra help for not-for-profit organisations in areas affected by Tropical Cyclone Debbie and recent flooding,\u201d Mrs D\u2019Ath said.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019d be lost without the work and compassion of our not-for-profits across Queensland, particularly so in the wake of recent weather events.<\/p>\n

\u201cUp until now, disaster-affected communities have focussed on their immediate needs \u2013 shelter, power and water. But in the weeks and months ahead these community groups will have the time to consider structural damage to local facilities and infrastructure.<\/p>\n

\u201cThat\u2019s when we\u2019ll be here, with four $13 million rounds of funding over the next 12 months.”<\/p>\n

However, she said organisations from other regions could still apply for grants, with all applications considered on their merits.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The Gambling Community Benefit Fund is a state-wide government funding program which collects revenue generated by gambling and channels it into not-for-profit organisations.<\/p>\n

Groups can apply online<\/a><\/strong> for grants of up to $35,000 (inclusive of GST) on a quarterly basis.<\/p>\n

The priority rounds for Tropical Cyclone Debbie will be Round 92, which closed on February 28, and Rounds 93, 94 and 95.<\/p>\n

Round 93 closes on May 31.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
