Hillstowe Community Sponsorship and Grants Program

AVID Property Group (AVID) is proud to support a wide range of not-for-profit, industry and community organisations across Australia through its Community Sponsorship and Grants Program.

Here at AVID, we love supporting local programs, events, schools and clubs. Over the past five years, we have been a proud supporter of a number of programs and businesses in Victoria, including the Collingwood AFL Women’s (AFLW) team, Diggers Rest Football and Netball Club, Diggers Rest Primary School, Diggers Rest Bulla Village Cricket Club and Take 3 for the Sea.

 AVID’s Victorian Sponsorship and Grants Program is divided into three categories: Build, Connect, Activate.

Build < $50,000

Build grants support large projects or campaigns, with potential national reach through shared promotional activity. Examples of current Build sponsorships include the Collingwood AFLW team and Take 3 for the Sea.

Connect <$10,000

Connect grants help to create lasting community partnerships and connections in and around the wider Hillstowe community. Previous Connect sponsorships in Victoria have included the Diggers Rest Football and Netball Club and Diggers Rest Bulla Village Cricket Club.

Activate < $5,000

Activate grants support local initiatives at a grassroots level, to help create lasting community partnerships and connections, including local festivals or school programs. Previous Activate projects in Victoria have included the Diggers Rest Primary School.

Key Dates

For 2020, Hillstowe will have two categories of grants available – Connect and Activate – each designed to foster local community groups and create lasting connections with our vibrant Officer community.
