NEW DATES - Act Local Pilbara: Grant Writing Workshop Series Karratha Ready to take your grant writing to the next level?
This free Grant Writing Workshop Series is designed to support volunteer-involving groups, community organisations and clubs across the City of Karratha to become grant-ready and confident applying for larger funding opportunities.
Building on previous Act Local Pilbara workshops focused on funding, fundraising and sponsorship, this series goes deeper into project planning, addressing selection criteria, and writing strong, competitive grant applications aligned to local and regional priorities - including City of Karratha Large Community Grants, industry funding, Lotterywest, and other major programs.
