PROPERTY developer Jinding is offering Kilmore region not-for-profit groups a chance to secure up to $2000 as part of its new Broadstead Community Grants program.
Jinding, which is behind the Broadstead Kilmore development, said sporting groups, charities and other not-for-profit organisations could apply for one of five grants available to assist with projects and initiatives in the Kilmore area.
Jinding head of development communities Chris Ravat said the grants program was part of an effort to create connected communities.
“We are dedicated to working closely with residents and local organisations to support the vital work of not-for-profit groups, with their tireless efforts benefiting the community and bringing residents together,” he said.
“The grants are a way of recognising these dedicated groups and the benefits their services bring to the local area, along with the role they play in creating connected communities.”
Mr Ravat said the grants program was one of several initiatives Jinding had underway in Kilmore.
“We are working closely with local sporting organisations and not-for-profit groups on annual sponsorships, and recently supported a prize in the Kilmore Regional Busking Championships, which is a fantastic family-friendly event,” he said.
“Our focus is on ensuring our new Broadstead community becomes part of the wider social fabric of Kilmore. It is such a wonderful area, and we know our residents – whether upgrading to a new home within the community or moving here – will love being part of it.”
Broadstead Kilmore will develop 60 hectares of land on Quinns Road and, once complete, will feature 11 hectares of green space alongside about 500 homes. The first stage of land is now selling.
Applications for the Broadstead Community Grants will close on Friday, June 30, with a panel of judges to decide on the successful applicants, which will be announced in early July.
Terms and conditions will apply.
