Overview

The Grow Grant supports the expansion of an existing business, organisation, or program meaning you are already operating and the funding will help you grow, increase capacity, or reach more people. It does not include maintaining your current operations without change.

The grants are designed to build capability, increase impact, and support sustainable growth by providing funding for program expansion, operational improvements, and skills development. The program aims to help organisations move from early success to long-term stability and greater community impact.
