The 2010 Community Grants Program is now open!
Whether it's protecting homes against fire, teaching our kids about road safety or combating climate change, local community organisations play a vital role in our lives.
That's why NRMA Insurance supports local community organisations working in the areas of crime prevention, road safety, emergency readiness and response, and the environment through our Community Grants Program.
Since 2003 the Community Grants Program has given more than $4 million to over 1,000 community projects right across Australia. Last year was one of our biggest years on record!
In NSW and the ACT alone, we gave 55 community grants to various groups committed to making our communities safer and greener - an investment of around $230,000.
Applications for a grant of up to $5,000 (including GST) are open until 31 March 2010.
If you have a big idea to help the community, apply now.
