Grant Seeking Unit: Grassroot support for volunteers
Grant funding is a key provider of support for our volunteers
Surf Life Saving Australia understands the importance of supporting their clubs and staff to help secure revenue through grant funding. As a result, the Grant Seeking Unit was established in 2009 and is a key provider of valuable grassroots support for our hard-working, dedicated volunteers.
Expert grant research & writing
The Grant Seeking Unit aims to maximise Surf Life Saving’s access to private and Government grant funding across Australia. We provide a united, strategic and professional approach to grant making bodies.
By delivering expert grant research and writing support, the Grant Seeking Unit can assist with securing vital funds for a range of projects including the purchase of valuable lifesaving equipment, youth development and community education programs, mental health initiatives and capital works projects for clubhouses.
