Environmental grants are available for community initiatives that enhance the environment and quality of life within the City of Onkaparinga. The grants are provided annually. The 2012 applications have now closed.

Grants are open to individuals, community groups, service clubs, schools, rural landholders and businesses.

Maximum grants available are $1000 for demonstration sites or school projects conducted solely on school grounds and $4000 for other projects.  Applicants are required to match the requested grant amount with cash, materials, volunteer hours or in kind contributions.

We encourage you to discuss any prospective project with staff at an early stage.

Environmental awards acknowledge and reward the valuable environmental contribution made by the community. Nominations can be made for achievements in the categories of individual, community group, local business or school projects. Awards are given in the form of a certificate of appreciation and recognition and a $100 cheque.

For further information and to discuss your project, please contact Tracy Fulton on (08) 8384 0083 or email traful@onkaparinga.sa.gov.au
