On 1 November 2022, the Commonwealth and Victorian Governments announced further funding for community sport and active recreation organisations directly affected by the Victorian floods that commenced in October 2022.
The Business and Community Sport Flood Recovery Grants will help businesses, not-for-profit and community sport and active recreation organisations rebuild as quickly as possible.
The simplest and quickest way to have your Flood Recovery Grant processed and receive support is to first apply for the $5000 one-off Community Sport Emergency Flood Assistance Program.
Once approved for the $5,000 one-off grant, applicants can then apply for up to $50,000 through the Flood Recovery Grant. Funds can be used to cover expenses arising from significant direct damage to the organisation’s facility and its equipment.
Funding received under the Community Sport Emergency Flood Assistance Program will be included in the total grant amount.
Please note, Business Victoria is administering the Business and Community Sport Flood Recovery Grants.
