Western Bay Community Groups are being encouraged to apply to receive funding assistance for projects which benefit their communities.
A new Community Matching Fund is open for applications until the first day of Spring, September 1, 2015.
Up to $99,000 is available for community and environmental projects that make a positive difference in the District.
The matching fund initiative, administered by Western Bay District Council, is designed to help community groups help themselves.
It was established to support projects led by not-for-profit community groups working for the benefit of their communities.
