Chance for a grant

By Kath Gannaway
YARRA Ranges schools could be among schools and groups to get a Go Green Grant to help with environmental projects.
Corporate Express and Landcare Australia announced the $75,000 grants program last week.
Fifteen schools and groups will receive a Go Green Grant of up to $5,000 to support innovative projects that bring about education in environmental issues, focus on sustainability, promote recycling initiatives or help improve the school’s or local area’s natural environment.
Corporate Express president Jay Mutschler said the next generation of Landcarers could make all the difference to the planet and that they were delighted to partner with Landcare Australia in the Go Green Grants program.
Applications are open until Tuesday, 1 May. For more information visit www.juniorlandcare.com.au
