SUMMARY:IGA Community Chest
DESCRIPTION:Raises funds to support local communities\, charities and other worthwhile causes. It could be in response to a major event like floods or bush fires or something as simple as new soccer balls for the local under 8’s. \n\n\nIGA Community Chest and associated programs have raised over $86 million for local community groups\, not-for-profit organisations\, charities and other worthy causes. This money has assisted over 7\,000 worthwhile causes. \nThe money is raised in a number of ways but predominately through the purchase of products with an IGA Community Chest logo on the label or ticket. Also through purchasing any Community Co product you can help your local IGA grow its Community Chest fund. \nWhen you purchase a product with the IGA Community Chest logo printed on the label a percentage is credited to that store’s IGA Community Chest account. During IGA Community Chest catalogue promotion weeks\, all products in the catalogue bearing the special IGA Community Chest logo contribute to the ‘Chest’. Throughout the year\, extra fundraising activities are conducted by stores and regions. \nIGA Community Chest beneficiary cheques are distributed throughout the year in most states. \nBecause IGA stores are independently owned\, each store will choose the local causes that they would like to support. Please find your local IGA and approach them directly. \nIGA uses a three-tier selection system:\n– Local causes are chosen by individual store owners\n– Regional causes are selected by clusters of stores or regional management\n– State-level initiatives are determined in consultation with State IGA executives or boards. \nPrepare a pitch and it may include:\n– An overview of your organisation and/or the individual that you’d like supported\n– What support are you looking for – monies\, donations of goods\, providing team jumpers\, holding regular fundraising at the store\, group registrations at the store\, etc\n– How the donation will be used and your timing. Is there anything you can offer in return to IGA?\n– Don’t forget to include your contact details. \nTypical grants include support for:\n– Local sports clubs (e.g. soccer jerseys\, equipment)\n– Schools (e.g. musical instruments or facility upgrades)\n– Emergency responses (e.g. flood relief)\n– Community services (e.g. men’s sheds\, RFS brigades). \nClick here to view full funding guidelines on the provider’s website.
