The Proston Men’s Shed will receive\u00a0$59,972 from the\u00a0Foundation for Rural & Regional Renewal (FRRR) as part of its\u00a0Tackling Tough Times Together grant program for drought-affected communities.<\/p>\n

The latest round of funding was announced last Thursday.<\/p>\n

Proston Men’s Shed Inc will receive the assistance to fit out its recently constructed building.<\/strong><\/p>\n

FRRR released $1,454,165 in grants to 41 community-led projects across Australia in the latest round.<\/p>\n

The Federal Government has contributed $15 million towards the\u00a0Tackling Tough Times Together program<\/p>\n

Deputy Prime Minister Michael McCormack said the latest round came at a critical moment for regional Australia\u2019s economic recovery.<\/p>\n

\u201cFor many regional communities, the challenges of COVID-19 have compounded the longstanding impact of drought, which we know is only truly broken after 18 to 24 months of sustained good rainfall \u2013 something that still seems a long way off in a lot of places,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
