The Grant Programs are a wonderful way for small, volunteer run organizations to access funding for projects that they may not otherwise be able to carry out. M&GNSW staff are very approachable, helpful and knowledgeable. It is also an important way for smaller organisations to feel part of a bigger community of dedicated full time industry professionals, and to gain and share valuable knowledge with and from others.
