Since its establishment in 2022, the TasPorts Community Grant Program has been more than just a source of financial aid for Tasmanian communities. With a total investment of $250,000, the program has become a catalyst for positive change and community growth across the region.
Chief Executive Officer Anthony Donald highlights the program’s broader impact, stating, “We are not just providing funds; we are allowing the supported organisations and initiatives to bring about meaningful change in the communities they represent.”
As TasPorts celebrates its sixth funding round, Mr Donald said, “It is wonderful to see such diversity in the organisations and projects submitted for consideration. In this current round, we have been able to support some important community outreach projects, fund marine safety equipment purchases and environmental conservation and education efforts within port areas, and help to facilitate some much-loved and new local events.”
$50,000 in funding was awarded to 14 recipients, accompanied by various forms of in-kind support, reflecting TasPorts' commitment to initiatives aligned with its key focus areas.
