The Dyson Group of Companies, incorporating the legendary Cobb & Co brand, is pleased to announce the launch of the next round of the Dysons Community Grants.
The program, now in its fourth year, has been established to provide grants in support of the many sporting, educational, welfare and community groups around Victoria, and to date almost 100 grants have been distributed.
Program manager, Grant Deacon, said the program aims to support a range of community- based organisations at grass roots level.
“The Dyson Group is pleased to be able to support so many community groups. We are excited that our grants can make a difference to so many people who work and volunteer with these groups by helping them with their special projects.
“We know the grants are helping people during these challenging economic times,” Mr Deacon said.
There are two rounds of grants annually, each with $10,000 available (maximum grant $1000).
Eligible organisations include pre-schools, primary and secondary schools, sporting clubs, not-for-profit groups, charities, welfare agencies, local societies and volunteer emergency services.
“We are very happy to be able to support these wonderful groups.
“Volunteers are the backbone of Victoria and we hope our grants help them deliver their important services to their communities,” Mr Deacon said.
This next round of grants opens on September 1 and closes on September 30.
All details, including terms and conditions, pre-application guidelines and an online application form can be found at the Dyson Group website.
