Local community groups seeking financial support are encouraged to apply for the latest round of the City of Greater Geraldton’s Community Grants Program.
Round 34 offers up to $10,000 per applicant and is open to not‑for‑profit organisations looking to deliver community-focused projects.
City of Greater Geraldton Mayor Jerry Clune invited all community groups to apply.
“The Community Grants Program is one of the City’s key initiatives to empower and support innovative projects and ideas in the Midwest,” he said.
“Many groups have shown how this grant enables them to expand their activities making Geraldton a brighter place to live.
“If your organisation could benefit from monetary assistance, I encourage you to apply for this funding opportunity.”
Notable highlights from Round 33 include Yamatji Southern Regional Corporation whose 2025 NAIDOC Dreamtime Drone Show was attended by over 7,000 people and Geraldton City Speedway Inc. who will soon be hosting a Maddington Toyota Sprintcar Series Round.
Support is available for groups to have their application reviewed before submission. If you would like to receive feedback on your draft application, please submit it by Sunday 1 February 2026.
Final deadline for submissions is 5pm on Friday 13 February 2026.
For a full list of the eligibility requirements, please refer to the Community Funding Programs Guidelines and access the City’s online grant information site here.
The Community Grants Program falls under the Connected theme of the City’s Strategic Community Plan and reflects the organisation’s commitment to supporting and celebrating the City’s diverse community through programs, initiatives and events that build social connections.
