Gambling Community Benefit Fund
Opportunities for people with a disability
Endeavour Foundation has received grants to improve buildings, groups and facilities from the Queensland Government’s Gambling Community Benefit Fund and Breakwater Island Casino Community Benefit Fund.
Grants of up to $30,000 are applied for on a per-case basis, and make a real difference by creating opportunities for Endeavour’s clients through greater learning and life skills, better employment, improved workspaces and a more enjoyable lifestyle.
We greatly appreciate the generosity of these funding bodies, which made it possible for 51 projects to be completed in the 2008/2009 financial year.
