Council Donation Program

Lachlan Shire Council regularly receives requests for assistance from organisations and individuals. However, Council resources are limited and it is not feasible to fund all applications. It is important that Council maintain a consistent, transparent and equitable approach to the consideration and distribution of donations. 

Council will consider provision of assistance by way of donation to local cultural, education, sport, welfare and other bodies and individuals where in the Council’s opinion, the application demonstrates a community need. Applications for donations shall be considered on their merits, taking into account the circumstances in each case, the availability of funds in Council’s adopted budget, the guidelines of the donation policy and provisions of the Local Government Act 1993.
