Ausbuild Community Fund
Ausbuild’s commitment to our communities extends beyond building homes and land.
Community Grants
Community Development
At Ausbuild, our commitment to communities goes beyond constructing homes and land. It's about nurturing the very essence of community spirit. That's why, in 2022, we proudly introduced the Ausbuild Community Fund (Moreton Bay) Grant Program, formerly known as The Sanctuary Community Fund. This initiative embodies our dedication to fostering grassroots community development throughout the Moreton Bay region.
The Ausbuild Community Fund (Moreton Bay) Grant Program serves as a tangible response to local challenges while amplifying opportunities that strengthen social bonds, contribute to sustainable growth, bolster community capability and capacity, and support the long-term health and well-being of both the region and its residents.
Our passion for responsible place-making and our active commitment to building healthy communities are the driving forces behind this grant program. It's just one facet of Ausbuild's comprehensive community development efforts, all designed to create opportunities that empower the local community to flourish, enrich the environment, and leave a lasting positive legacy.
Program Aims
- Maximise the delivery of local projects or programs that support the region’s sustainable growth.
- Foster happy, healthy and connected communities by supporting the wellbeing of the region’s current and future residents.
- Protect and enhance the local natural environment.
Funding
The Ausbuild Community Fund (Moreton Bay) Grant Program offers up to $50,000 across one funding round in 2023 with applications between $500 and $25,000 eligible.
From crucial life-saving equipment to fostering employment opportunities for individuals with disabilities, these diverse projects are set to create a positive and enduring impact on a broad spectrum of individuals. Volunteers, young people, local caregivers, individuals with disabilities, and our environment will all benefit significantly.
The recipients of the 2023 Ausbuild Community Fund (Moreton Bay) Grant Program have now been officially announced, marking another milestone in supporting initiatives that will contribute positively to our community.
