The grants are designed to strengthen community involvement by supporting organisations to develop services, manage facilities, coordinate events and promote tourism, environmental sustainability and health.

Chair administrator, Graeme Emonson said the grants program played an important role in supporting local community organisations.

"Community organisations are vital to what makes Moira Shire a great place to live," Dr Emonson said.

"These grants help support projects that bring people together, improve our local environment and promote health and wellbeing across our communities."

To be eligible, organisations must be incorporated not-for-profit groups with membership open to Moira Shire residents, or unincorporated entities registered with national statutory regulators.
