Grants are a valuable source of funding for Scout Groups and formations, offering low-effort, high-impact
income opportunities. They can support a wide range of projects, including property works, equipment, training,
programs, and more.
Scouts Victoria has prepared this guide to outline the opportunities available, the legalities and information that
applies, plus the processes involved – from the grant application to final acquittal for successful funding. This guide covers all policy and procedure for Group grants.
The guide is broken into four key sections: grants overview, finding grants, applying for grants, and managing
successful grants. Grants overview contains two flowcharts taking you through every step of a grant application.
Each numbered step is then explained fully throughout the guide, along with some helpful advice along the way.
