Successful funding results for Everton community groups

Member for Everton, Tim Mander has welcomed another funding boost for local community groups through the latest round of Gambling Community Benefit Fund grants.
Mr Mander said eligible local community groups had received a share of $56,000 to help them with the purchase of necessary equipment and upgrades.
“These grants allow the profits from gambling to be invested back into grass roots services and facilities that will help benefit our community,” Mr Mander said.
The next funding round opened mid-April and closes at midnight on 31 May.
“I encourage all local groups, however big or small, to apply for the next round of funding and make the most of this wonderful opportunity,” he said.
