 Applications for Bayswater and Noranda Community Bank^® branches 2019 grants will open on 5^th August and close the 2^nd September with community groups invited to share in more than $30,000 of funds for worthwhile projects.

Following on from the enormous success of our new approach to the grants in 2018, I’m pleased to inform you that this year, we’ll again simply be asking you to present your pitch in a 3-minute talk or, for incorporated groups, just nominate. It’s that simple. The nomination process is the same for both incorporated and non-incorporated groups.

How will it work?

• Each non-incorporated group that meets the nomination criteria will have 3 minutes to tell representatives from Bayswater and Noranda Community Bank^® branches what they need the grant money for, and what the benefits to the community will be.
• Once each group has presented, the representatives will decide who the grant money will go to, and what share of the $30,000 each will receive.
• Incorporated groups will be assessed separately by Bayswater and Noranda Community Bank^® branch representatives.

 Who can Apply?

To be eligible to present your case for the chance to receive a share of more than $30,000 in grant money, you must:

• be a not-for-profit organisation or community-based group/enterprise
• be based in the City of Bayswater OR provide a distinct community benefit to the residents of the City of Bayswater.

 What are the rules?

• Applications for grants cannot exceed $5000.
• Part funding for projects worth more than $5000 will only be considered where the majority of the funds have already been raised.
• Funding for ongoing running costs will not be considered – your application must be linked to a specific project, program, purchase (e.g. equipment, uniforms), infrastructure, event or similar.
• Depending on the number of applications received and the assessment of the judging panel, you may receive only part of your funding request.
• Projects cannot be retrospective and must be completed within the next 12 months

 To be considered, each application must include the following supporting documentation:

Financials

• Current signed Audited Financial Statements for the Applicant organisation and Project Partner (where applicable).
• If your organisation is not required to audit your financials, please provide a profit and loss statement as a minimum and a balance sheet if available. Please also include a current bank statement.

 Quotes

• Quotes are required for all budget items
• If you have conducted this project/program before copies of receipts / invoices that substantiate this request from previous expenditure may be acceptable together with a detailed budget

Project Budget

Please ensure that your budget and/or supporting documentation clearly shows how the funds requested will be spent.

State Government Entities are encouraged to call the Foundation before submitting an application. There are some requirements that will apply.

Please note that if you are successful in receiving your funding through this program, you will be required to acquit your project 60 days after your project end date. An acquittal report will be required which includes a photo and financial account of how the funds have been spent. 

Why should I do this?

We know how hard it is to fund not-for-profit and community groups and keep them evolving. We know you are all volunteers who already give up so much of your time and energy. This is an opportunity to fund all or part of that next thing you want to achieve, with minimal effort.

What’s the time frame?

Monday 5 Aug 2019:     Applications open      
Monday 2 Sept 2019:    Applications close midnight

Monday 21 Oct 2019:    Pitch Night and Award evening for non-incorporated groups
