Cash Donations
Swan residents travelling to achieve their goals.
Working with the community to support meaningful projects
Expression of interest (EOI) process now in place
We are now asking organisations to submit an EOI that introduces your project to the grants team with a brief outline. We can then use EOI's to identify projects that:
- maximise community benefit
- address real issues
- most meaningfully impact Swan residents
If your EOI fits the above priorities and indicates that you're capable of delivering on your ideas, we will then invite you to complete a full application.
Browse our available grants below, and click on the one that fits your project best to find more details, and to lodge an EOI.

- S2.1 - Facilitate, partner and deliver a range of services and recreational opportunities that support health and wellbeing

These goals are set by the community, for the community. Want to have your say and shape the City’s goals? Join Swan Engage to share your perspective.
