MCCG project funding summary
Moggill Creek Catchment Group actively seeks funding from a variety of organizations to support the work that it does. Membership fees cover some of the costs of our activities, but we need to apply for grants to enable us to undertake major projects.
Most of the projects for which we seek funding are for bush regeneration work on public land, but we also need grants to cover our administration costs, equipment, information booklets, events and workshops.
