A total of 25 organisations have been awarded grants under the Australian Government’s 2024-25 Volunteer Grants Program.

$10 million dollars was made available to 151 electorates, with more than $66,000 of that allocated to the electorate of Hume.

Federal Member for Hume Angus Taylor said these organisations would not exist without the support of local volunteers.

“They get enormous satisfaction from the work they do.

“I’m encouraging others to get involved,” Mr. Taylor said.
