Intro
Volunteering Minister Stephen Dawson said funding of up to $5000 will be available to volunteer service organisations and local governments for projects which support local solutions focused on boosting volunteer numbers.
Grants can be used for marketing and initiatives that promote the value of volunteering to local communities. This can include the design and printing of resources, volunteer awareness raising activities and online information provision, such as promoting volunteerism via social media.
The Promotion and Marketing of Volunteering in WA Grants Program will be administered by peak body Volunteering WA, with the funding provided by the Department of Communities.
The grants are intended to attract a broader range of volunteers, including minority or hard-to-reach groups.
Funding can also be used to encourage greater diversity in volunteering roles, and the utilisation of partnerships with corporate volunteers and local community organisations.
Grant applications opened 1 September 2022.
