SUMMARY:GRANT-AUS 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.

SUMMARY:Student Voice Symposium & Student Voice Summit 2025
DESCRIPTION:Beyond the Seat | From voice to choice \n\n\nThursday 23 October (Student Summit) \n\n\nFriday 24 October (Student Voice Symposium) \n\n\nLocation: Griffith University Gold Coast & Online \n\n\nThis year’s theme challenges us to go further than giving students a seat at the table.\nIt’s about moving from simply listening to sharing real power. \nVoice is the first step – allowing students to be heard. Choice empowers students to co-create\, lead\, and enact change. When voice and choice come together\, education becomes more inclusive\, impactful\, and truly student-centred. \nBeyond the Seat invites us to rethink systems\, relationships\, and leadership\, so students help shape not just the conversation\, but the future. \nOur theme this year will be explored through four streams: \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nStructures That Listen: Student Voice in University Governance \n\nLearning Together: Co-Creating Curriculum and Pedagogy\nBelonging and Culture: Building Inclusive Communities\nLeadership in Action: Building Confidence and Capability

SUMMARY:Webinar - Finding Funding and Winning Grants
DESCRIPTION:Fundraising is the lifeblood of most community organisations\, yet it’s an often-neglected task. Most organisations draw the majority of their income from just one or two sources. That’s a dangerous strategy. If one of those sources dries up\, you could quickly face a budget black hole. \nTo survive and thrive in a changing world\, a not-for-profit organisation must develop a fundraising plan that rests on these seven pillars of fundraising: \n\nGrants\nDonations\nCrowdfunding\nMembership\nEvents\nSales\nSponsorship\n\nWith around $80 billion given out in grants across Australia each year\, this session will take an in-depth look at writing a proposal to ensure your organisation is getting its share of the money on offer. \nThis course is designed for grassroots community groups that want to find out where to find funding\, and how to win it.

SUMMARY:GRANT-AUS 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.
