Background

The Hills Shire Council Community Grants Program provides funding for new general, cultural, sporting and recreation projects and events that will have a sustainable and positive outcome for the residents of The Hills Shire.  It aims to provide financial support to local non-profit, non-government, community-based organisations.  All projects and events must occur during the 2013/14 F.Y.
