Queensland Country Bank’s Good for Good Community Grants Program is calling for applications NOW
What’s Happening?
Queensland Country Bank’s 2024 Good for Good Community Grants Program is now open for applications from not-for-profit organizations across Queensland. Grants between $5,000 and $30,000 are available for community projects. Applications close at 5 PM on Monday, September 2.
Why it Matters?
Since 2005, the program has provided $2.8 million in funding to support vital community projects across regional Queensland. These grants are especially important now, as many small organizations face rising costs.

Local Impact
