There is just over a week left to get your applications in for MidCoast Council's Water Wiser Grants program.
Eligible organisations that have a water conservation or sustainability project in mind are encouraged to submit their applications before 11:59pm on Thursday 31 July.
Council's Director of Infrastructure and Engineering Services, Rob Scott, said the program benefitted both individual organisations and the broader community.
"These grants not only help schools, community groups and other eligible organisations improve their own programs and operations, they contribute to making the area more sustainable overall," said Mr Scott.
The program offers grants of up to $10,000 to co-fund projects and activities that increase water conservation or sustainability through education, efficiency improvements or awareness-raising initiatives.
Mr Scott said he was looking forward to seeing another round of projects funded, after the success of the program in its inaugural year in 2024.
"Last year we awarded more than $45,000 to schools, sporting groups and community halls for a range of great projects, from school gardening programs to installing rainwater tanks and improved irrigation systems at sporting facilities."
Applicants are encouraged to read the full guidelines for eligibility and criteria before submitting their applications.
