Weston Creek Community Association Inc. (WCCA) is looking to distribute up to $20,000 in funding for projects that will benefit the local community.

A local association formed in 1972, The WCCA administers the Weston Creek Community Centre, the Weston Neighbourhood Hall, Flynn Community Hall, Holt Neighbourhood Hall and Chifley Community Meeting Room on behalf of the ACT Government.

The WCCA’s operating surpluses are reinvested in its services and maintaining the high quality of the facilities it manages.

Any funds left over after meeting its obligations are able to be directed to activities in line with the WCCA’s purpose.

This year, the WCCA is funding a Community Grants Program (the Program) to provide financial support for projects that promote
community cohesion, development and support, primarily in Weston Creek, Molonglo and surrounding suburbs.

Projects which deliver benefit to the community, impact on social equity and equality, as well as impact on community and/or individual health and wellbeing will receive high priority.

A total fund of $20,000 for the Program is available for applications from $1,000 and upwards. Applications must be submitted between 1 and 22 February 2023.
