Sport and Recreation Victoria is providing grants to regional organisations through the Sustainable Volunteer Workforce Program.
The program, which will distribute up to $450,000 over three years between 2024-2027 to eligible organisations, is for initiatives which aim to build a sustainable volunteer workforce and support the engagement and retention of volunteers, finding ways to better support the workforce to deliver sport and active recreation.
Its purpose is to increase the productivity, capability and resilience of the community sport and active recreation workforce, with operational sustainability in mind. For volunteers in regional Victoria, the key initiatives will ease the burden on them.
To apply, the organisation must fit under any of the three categories:
- Victorian State Sporting Associations (SSAs)
- Victorian State Sport and Active Recreation Bodies (SSARBs)
- Regional Sports Assemblies (RSAs) and Regional Sport Victoria.
Applications are now open and will close at 11:59 pm on Monday August 19, 2024. All successful/unsuccessful outcomes will be delivered by the end of October 2024.
