Minor Grants

Jazz at the pines. Gentleman on the trumpet in front of a crowd listening to him.

Council will consider one Minor grant application per financial year up to $1000 for not-for-profit and incorporated organisations that are delivering community services, organising small events or cultural activities for Hills Shire residents. Minor grants do not require dollar-for-dollar match funding.

The program is open year-round until budget allocation has been exhausted.

Please read the Minor Grants Guidelines(PDF, 987KB) closely prior to completing the online application form.

Important Information:

  • Applications for Minor Grants must be submitted no later than eight (8) weeks prior to the event, program or project commencing. Applications submitted for events or projects commencing in less than eight (8) weeks for funding cannot be guaranteed.
  • All grant applications will be assessed in line with Council’s adopted Grants Policy(PDF, 696KB).
  • Applications may be recommended for full funding, partial funding, or no funding.

Please note: Council will no longer consider applications for individuals.
