Junee Start Up Grants
Three Junee not-for-profits (NFP’s) shared in $60,000 in funding as part of the IRCF program launch in Junee.
These grants formed the start-up round of the program and were the first investment of the IRCF program. The grants were provided to local organisations to prepare the community for the next phase of the IRCF program, and prior to the development of the Community Roadmap.
The grants were open to any community group within Junee, with organisations encouraged to collaborate to make the most of the limited funds available to them.
