Funding for local projects
Published 01 August 2024
Our local volunteer community organisations, sporting groups and P&Cs are part of what makes our community so great. I know just how hard these volunteers work for their schools, clubs, and places of worship.
Over the past year, it has been great to work with community groups to deliver $350,000 in state funding for infrastructure upgrades, new equipment, and much needed sporting supplies.
This grassroots funding will directly help create a more vibrant and inclusive local community.
The full list of successful projects in the Vaucluse electorate are:
- Bondi Public School - $100,000 which will assist in upgrading the student toilets, which service over 80% of the school’s community.
