Deadline: 8-Mar-22
The City of Logan has announced an open call for Community Events Grants Program to provide financial and in-kind support for a wide range of events.
This allows them to assist community organizations to host events that celebrate the community’s diversity, energy, and creativity.
Types of Funding
-
There are two funding options available through the Community Events Funding Program:
- Small Event Grant ($200 – $2,000): This grant is for small events, normally with less than 1,000 people expected. These small community events tend to be aimed at a particular group in the community.
- Event Sponsorship ($2,001 – $20,000): Event sponsorship is available for large events, normally with over 1,000 people expected to attend and which have a broad community appeal.
The City of Logan will Fund
-
The goal is to support events that promote and celebrate all the things they love about the city. This includes:
- Events that will be conducted within the boundaries of Logan City and benefit members of the Logan community (i.e. not only to the benefit of an individual); OR
- Events that will not be conducted within the boundaries of Logan City, but will benefit members of the Logan community (i.e. not only for the benefit of an individual).
- Please provide detailed information in your application describing the benefit to the Logan community, identifying the groups that will benefit and how. This should be included in the Event Description.
- With events that will be held outside of the boundaries of Logan City, while there may be a benefit to members of the Logan community, preference is given to events that are delivered within the boundaries of Logan City.
-
Events must demonstrate that they support Council’s community purpose:
- Encourage a vibrant, engaged, and resilient community
- Build on the strengths in the local community
- Value local collaboration and partnerships
- Encourage participation in community life and foster social cohesion
- Promote and encourage environmental protection and sustainability
- Support the city vision of 'Innovative, Dynamic, City of the Future
- Support Council's Corporate Plan priorities
