EMRC Community Grants Program

Since 1997, the Eastern Metropolitan Regional Council (EMRC) has been proudly supporting the communities neighbouring the Red Hill Waste Management Facility through grants of up to $3,000 for projects that provide direct benefits to the local community and/or environment.

The program has a pool of $15,000 available to support not-for-profit organisations and community groups to complete projects that enhance the sustainability, social, cultural and recreational outcomes for the Gidgegannup, Hovea, Parkerville and Stoneville communities.
