The Office of Multicultural Interests (OMI) is offering a new one-off competitive funding opportunity of up to $250,000 to support capital works at facilities owned or managed by CaLD community associations or CaLD community service organisations based in WA.
The Community Capital Works Fund supports individual projects that involve maintenance, refurbishment, upgrades, or extensions of existing facilities that are used for community purposes such as cultural events, or linguistic, social and welfare activities.
Timeframes for the application and approval process need to be considered by the organisation. The process takes approximately three months from submission to approval. It is intended that applicants will be advised of outcomes by January 2021.
As part of the application process, applicants should seek advice from an OMI Community Engagement Officer to confirm their eligibility and to discuss their capital works plans before commencing the application.
