The Canberra Southern Cross Club has always provided community funding through programs such as Community Welfare, Community Grants, Community Sports Sponsorship, and in recent years, the innovative Community Rewards Program.

The Club is proud to announce the introduction of our fifth funding program, the Community Key Partner Program.

The Community Key Partner Program will commence in July 2017. This program will provide the successful applicant up to $50,000 per annum over a three year term, comprised of up to $40,000 cash, and $10,000 of in-kind services.

Not-for-profit charities who work in the ACT and surrounding districts are invited to apply. The Community Key Partner guidelines and application form are available at cscc.com.au/community with submissions closing on Friday 14 July 2017.

In announcing the new Program, Club president John Lewis commented “The Canberra Southern Cross Club is introducing the Community Key Partner Program not only to assist the wonderful work done by non-profit organisations, but also to highlight their efforts in providing services to the people of Canberra.”
