Ninderry groups benefit from community grants

LOCAL community and sporting groups who put in applications for funding via the most recent round of the Gambling Community Benefit Fund were recently presented with their cheques by Ninderry MP Dan Purdie.
Mr Purdie said it was a pleasure to present the Coolum Beach Surf Life Saving Club with $31,017.
“The club will use the money to purchase a new rescue boat and engine, helping them to continue their incredible work keeping our beaches safe.
“A huge thank you to all the dedicated volunteers who give their time to protecting our community! Your commitment is truly appreciated.”
Mr Purdie also presented the Eumundi Residents Association with a cheque for $3,275.
“This grant helped support their annual Writer’s Festival, a fantastic event that brought the community together to celebrate creativity and storytelling. Congratulations to everyone involved on a hugely successful festival.”
Round 125 of the Gambling Community Benefit Fund is now open, offering grants of up to $35,000 to support not-for-profit organisations across Queensland. Be sure to get your applications in quickly, as this round will close on October 31, 2025.
