Community groups working on projects that reduce waste and boost recycling can apply for funding under the WA Government’s Community Grants Scheme (CGS).
The CGS supports projects that contribute to achieving WA’s waste strategy targets – diverting 65 per cent of municipal solid waste from landfill in the Perth metropolitan region and 50 per cent in major regional centres by 2020.
In the 14 years the CGS has been running, $1.64 million has been allocated to more than 180 community groups.
Applications for funding close at 12pm on Friday, March 16 2018.
