The annual Costa Well Grown Community Grants Program for the Armidale and Guyra region is now open for applications.
The Well Grown Community Grants program provides funding support for not-for-profit community organisations, sporting associations and schools.
In 2025 we will be awarding five grants up to a total of $4000 each, with one grant to be awarded in each of the following category areas:
- Sporting event/activity which promotes and supports healthy active lifestyles.
- Community event which is aimed at supporting cultural diversity and/or creating strong community connections.
- School project/initiative which enhances education or educational opportunities, particularly in the areas of healthy eating; or nutrition; or sustainability.
- Environmental initiative/activity which promotes the enhancement of our environment.
- Community organisation project aimed at supporting disadvantaged youth and/or Indigenous youth projects.
Brett Ryan, State Manager Vertical Farming, said Costa was looking forward to continuing support for local community organisations.
“Over the past two years since we started our grants program we have provided funding for a wide range of organisations including school kitchen garden program, local events and sporting clubs, which all in turn provide wonderful support and services for our community,” Mr Ryan said.
