What can a Community Grant cover?

While the individual programs we support may not be unique, the range of assistance we provide to community organisations in support of children is unmatched.

Community Grants 

Variety NSW/ACT Community Grants provide one-off support to help bring to life projects, programs or equipment that make a real difference in how kids, play, learn and take part in community life.  

Applications for our Community Grants are currently closed. To receive updates regarding our Community Grant, please sign up to our Newsletter. 

Motoring Events Grants 

Schools and community groups located along Variety Motoring Event routes may be invited to apply for a dedicated grant. These grants are by invitation only and are linked to specific event routes and community visits.

Schools can also submit an expression of interest to be considered as part of a future Variety Motoring Event route or grant opportunity.

Sunshine Coaches 

Variety Sunshine Coaches support schools and organisations to purchase an accessible coach, enabling children living with disability, chronic illness, financial hardship or geographical isolation to attend school, community activities and events, and experience the connection, inclusion, and opportunities that might otherwise be out of reach.  

We are currently not accepting applications for our Sunshine Coaches Program. If you have any questions regarding our Sunshine Coaches Program, please reach out to our Kids Support Team.

Every community is different. Our Community Grants provide flexible support to help schools and organisations continue delivering meaningful programs and opportunities for children.

If you’re already doing great work, we’re here to help you strengthen and expand your impact.
