Community grants up to $5,000

The grants are open to community groups including charities, sporting clubs, schools, environmental organisations and community groups.

Projects may include upgrading food charity kitchens, improving sporting clubrooms, delivering education programs to remote groups, providing community health and wellness programs, or assisting a revegetation initiative.

Eligible groups can apply for grants of up to $5,000 a year to fund projects that have positive and measurable benefits for their community and have the potential for long-term impact beyond the grant.

Priority will also be given to projects that align with Pace Farm’s respect for equity and inclusion, driven by its vision of Eggs For Everyone, and to initiatives that make a meaningful difference in areas where Pace Farm operates.

Why?

Pace Farm’s vision is simple — Eggs For Everyone. We want to provide everyone access to healthy, nutritional, delicious eggs wherever they are.

Our vision inspires us to make a positive impact and now we want to support local communities with our Community Grants Program that focuses on community inclusivity and enhancement.
