The Victorian State Government has launched the Change Our Game Community Activation Grants program, an initiative that aims to fund one-off community level events that celebrate the role of women and girls in sport.
Through the program, grants of up to $10,000 are available to support community sport organisations to deliver events that promote gender equality - activities do not have to be women-only events.
The funding range is as follows:
- Participation stream up to $5,000
- Organisation or club training/development up to $5,000
- Showcasing achievements up to $10,000
This is the second round of the grant and forms part of the Government’s $7.2 million investment in the Change Our Game initiative. The program has already provided 155 grants supporting community sport and recreation organisations to host events ranging from come-and-try days to community forums and educational sessions.
In terms of eligibility, any community level organisations that deliver sport and active recreation programs across Victoria can apply. Organisations who have received a grant in Round 1 of the 2020/2021 Change our Game Community Activation grant are ineligible to apply.
The grant opened April 14 2021 and will close at 5pm 12 May 2021.
