Every year the festival provides hundreds of free and discounted programs and activities, with the grant program aiming for the best use and a broad distribution of funds to maximise the benefit for seniors across NSW.
If you're a NSW local council or an incorporated not-for-profit organisation including Indigenous Corporations, registered charities, local Aboriginal Land Councils or religious organisations we invite you to apply.
This is a fantastic opportunity to run events that help seniors stay connected, active and involved in community life.
There are two funding categories available:
$1,500 to $5,000: open to all eligible applicants to host local community programs and activities
$5,001 to $10,000: open only to applications from local governments to host large-scale community and regional programs and activities
We're funding events that are:
free or low-cost for seniors
inclusive and accessible
fun, educational, or engaging
designed to foster connection and wellbeing
