Collie Futures Small Grants Program
Small grants, big impact!
Status: Open – accepting applications
We invite you to apply for up to $100,000 for projects that will deliver meaningful economic or community outcomes.
If your project meets the following objectives, this grants program could help make your plans a reality.
Objectives:
- Invest in projects that support economic diversity, growth, and jobs in the Collie region.
- Contribute to a vibrant and liveable regional community.
- Supporting Collie’s Just Transition by maximising opportunities for transitioning workers.
The Collie Futures Small Grants Program provides funding to projects that help strengthen and diversify the Collie economy as the region transitions away from coal‑related industries.
