For the Give Where You Live Foundation’s latest round of grant funding, community members as well as employees from a number of local businesses, participated in our Grant Review Panels.
More than 30 community members and also employees from local businesses such as Coulter Legal, Geelong Broadcasters, and TAC read, reviewed, and provided feedback on grant applications submitted to the Foundation.
Each community and business member read and provided feedback on 3-4 grant applications before participating in a group panel workshop to discuss and provide recommendations to the Foundation. These panels provide members who participate with valuable insights into the need in our community and a closer look at the work that we do.
Annual Grants in 2025 will focus on addressing immediate needs across the Give Where You Live Foundation’s priority areas of Food Security and Homelessness Assistance. The outcome of this grant round will be announced in June 2025.
Thank you to all who participated. Together we are creating a fairer Geelong community.
