MAPLETON and District Community Association (MADCA) recently announced the recipients of its latest round of grant funding, supporting a range of valuable local community initiatives.
Some of the local recipients included the Range Community Gym and the Mapleton Choir (pictured above) who received funding to develop a sustainable donations and grant process, aiming to secure their long-term financial stability. The Mapleton State School P&C – set to utilise their grant to enhance STEAM resources, including a cataloguing system and book boxes, enriching the learning experience for students. The Range Community Kindergarten received funding to purchase a much-needed blind, improving the learning environment for young children, while the Range United Soccer Club will use their grant to purchase a new BBQ, enhancing their ability to host community events and fostering a sense of camaraderie.
MADCA President Max Standage said this was the second year that MADCA had offered the grants, and said it was fantastic to see the program roll out.
“While it may be small financial support in the grand scheme of things, it can make a big difference to our community clubs and organisations,” he said. “MADCA is proud to support these diverse local projects that contribute to the vibrancy and well-being of our community.
“We thank all applicants and congratulate the successful recipients.”
