Boco Rock Community Enhancement Fund opens for 2024
Published on 29 April 2024
Applications for the Boco Rock Community Enhancement Fund are open for 2024, with the entire Snowy Monaro region now eligible to submit an application for this grant funding opportunity.
Local community groups, initiatives and events are invited to apply, and Council encourages eligible applicants to get to work on their applications before the Friday 7 June 2024 closing date. Don’t miss out on this opportunity to secure a boost to your community initiative’s financial resources.
The Boco Rock Community Enhancement Fund was established as a condition of the NSW Government's approval for the Boco Rock Wind Farm project. A portion of the revenue generated by the wind farm is reinvested into the local community through this grant program.
Earlier this year, Council announced that the fund would be expanded to accept applications from all parts of the Snowy Monaro, rather than only areas in the former Cooma-Monaro and Bombala shires eligible in previous years.
This change was made following the NSW Government's approval of the second stage expansion of the Boco Rock Wind Farm.
The 2024 Boco Rock Community Enhancement Fund application period is open now until Friday 7 June 2024.
Eligible applicants are invited to download the required documents and review the program guidelines online at https://qrco.de/bocorock today.
