Non-monetary funding is in-kind contributions available for community and not-for-profit incorporated groups looking for a contribution towards hire fees of council owned facilities (meeting/recreation spaces) and use of equipment.

This grant can be used for one-off events, or as temporary support for groups facing economic sustainability issues. In this instance work with a City Officer on organisational financial sustainability will be required, as this grant is not intended to be a substitute for financial viability. 

Applicants can re-apply for annual events, however, the funds that may be granted will be reduced each year, for up to three years.
