Community Chest Grants Program

Following on from the success of the Ku-ring-gai Edition of Monopoly, the Turramurra and Lindfield Community Bank branches are pleased to announce the Community Chest Grants Program.

Over the next few months, we will be giving away $22,787 to local charities, and not for profits with charitable projects.

How does it work?

Local charitable organisations are encouraged to apply for one of 10 financial grants of $2,000. An additional $2,787 will then be granted to one of the 10 chosen organisations as part of a public vote.

Who can apply?

Applications are open to local charitable organisations and to other not for profits for a charitable purpose. ie: A local sporting club could apply for a Community Chest Grant to build wheelchair access to their clubhouse or provide provisions for an impaired player.

They could not apply for a grant to purchase new equipment for the club.

How to apply?

Apply online HERE from the 1st March 2019.
