Transurban Relief Grants

In light of the current cost of living challenges in Australia, Transurban is running an extra round of Community Grants, particularly focussed on frontline organisations providing emergency relief. 

Grants of up to $10,000 are available for eligible projects in Greater Melbourne, Sydney, and Brisbane.

Community grant applications can be submitted for any amount up to $10,000 to support the increased demand on services.

At least one grant per state is dedicated to a First Nations organisation.

Applicant organisations must hold a DGR status or be registered with the Australian Charities and Not-for-profits Commission (ACNC) and delivering the proposed project within a designated local government area.
