Federal Member for Flynn, Colin Boyce is pleased to announce the Growing Regions Program Round 2 will open on Thursday, September 5.
Mr Boyce said not-for-profit organisations and government entities are invited to submit an application for Round 2 of the Growing Regions Program.
“Grants between $500,000 and $15 million are available to support capital works projects for community and economic infrastructure in rural and regional Australia,” Mr Boyce said.
“More funding for the Flynn electorate will deliver the infrastructure our communities need to be successful and grow.
“Regional communities are the lifeblood of Australia. Investment into communities through these types of funding programs deliver an immediate injection into the economy and supports more local jobs.
“Many organisations right across the Flynn electorate have directly benefited through funding opportunities similar to the Growing Regions Program.
“The previous Coalition Government’s popular Building Better Regions Fund (BBRF) delivered millions of dollars in funding for critical infrastructure projects to numerous communities in Flynn.
“Unfortunately, Labor’s October 2022 Budget axed the Building Better Regions Fund, a blow to regional and rural communities including for the Flynn electorate.
“Submissions close for the Growing Regions Program at 5.00pm AEDT on the 10th of October 2024.
“More information can be found here: https://business.gov.au/grants-and-programs/growing-regions-program-round-2.
“I encourage all eligible organisations to apply.”
