Hawkesbury Resilience Grants now open

February 10, 2026

Hawkesbury Resilience Grants of $500 to $5,000 are still available to support communities impacted by the 2019-2020 Summer Bushfires.

The grants are to support community groups, joint organisations and not-for-profit groups to undertake projects that enhance social recovery and preparedness activities. Projects should be community-led events or programs for grass-roots activities that contribute to community recovery and/or resilience including projects that support community wellbeing.

Activities that would be considered are community events or celebrations or events that aim to create or enhance community connections; involve creative arts or physical activities; mental health initiatives; or connection to the land or environment.

Applications for the last round will be received until close of business Wednesday, 31 May 2023. For more information visit www.hawkesbury.nsw.gov.au/for-residents/community/community-funding or call 4560 4444 or email council@hawkesbury.nsw.gov.au
