“Our community groups give so much of their time, energy and heart to support the South Burnett. These grants go a long way toward helping them continue the incredible work they do,” Deb said.

“These projects will make a meaningful difference across the region, and I look forward to seeing these projects come to life and the positive impact they will have on our community.”

The Gambling Community Benefit Fund continues to play an important role in supporting grassroots organisations, helping them grow, improve and keep delivering for the people of the South Burnett.

Community groups are encouraged to keep an eye out for announcements regarding the commencement of Round 127.
