How much can my club apply for?
When drafting your application, please consider that the total funds available for each round amounts to $40,000 split equally between regional and metro applicants. To be considered for a grant, an itemised quote(s) must be submitted with your application in order to verify the cost of items requested.
I’ve applied, what happens next?
All applications will be reviewed by the MJSG Committee in the month after the close of the active round. We will then contact you via your nominated email address to advise whether or not your grant has been successful, and request supporting documents. The latter process may take up to another month.
