The Healthy Active Community program provides grants between $500 to $1000 to qualifying individuals and groups who provide healthy eating and physical activity initiatives at the local level.
The Healthy Active Community program benefits the whole community by targeting at-risk groups (such as children, youth, adults, elders or women) and encouraging healthy lifestyle choices at the grassroots level across the Torres Strait Region.
The Goal of our Healthy Active Community Program is to:
Increase active participation in indigenous sports and recreation
Subsidise the costs to individuals who participate in healthy lifestyle programs
Encourage individuals or groups to run community based healthy lifestyle programs
Build capacity and sustainability of sports and active recreation providers
Increase volunteers supporting sports and active recreation activities and events
Key Dates
Applications for Health Active Community Grants are open all year round.
