Hervey Bay RSL Community Grants
The Hervey Bay RSL Community Grants program is part of the RSL's ongoing commitment to our local community.
The program is designed to provide financial, in-kind, and fundraising opportunities to local not-for-profit organisations struggling to gain support. The program was developed to ensure the Club's annual community donations are spread more evenly amongst deserving local individuals and organisations who are doing great work within the community.
The RSL has donated over $6 million dollars over the past 10 years.
