The volunteer grants are designed to help community organisations support the important work of their volunteers.
Each volunteer group will receive grants of between $1,000 and $5,000 that will help purchase small equipment, contribute to fuel, and transport costs for volunteers, assist with training courses, and conduct activities to promote awareness of volunteering opportunities.

Madeleine King MP Federal Member for Brand said while the grants are small, the impact will be big with funding going a long way to provide for the community.
