Applications for the Aspire Community Grants Scheme 2018 are currently open.

The Aspire Community Grants Scheme 2018 aims to support the needs of the local community by making grants available to eligible people for undertakings that seek to improve the quality of their life or that of a family member or Community group.

Aspire sees the Community Grants Scheme as a way to further support people with a disability, families and community groups:

  • in times of additional need
  • in areas such as education, community access, sport, technology and mobility.

Applications are invited from community members within the cities of Albury and Wodonga, as well as Corowa and Greater Hume Shires.

Aspire strives to provide a confidential, effective and timely means of dealing with applications. Aspire can only provide this service as a result of our sole fundraiser, Aspire’s annual Oaks Day Ladies Luncheon,  working in partnership with Community Groups, and with an annual donation from the Albury Commercial Club.

  • An activity that has ongoing benefit to individuals and the community

Aspire Oaks Day Luncheon 2018 – Ten Years On!

Aspire Oaks Day 2018

Thursday, 8 November 2018 marks ten years of Oaks Day Luncheons at the Albury Race Club!

To celebrate this special event the décor will signify ten successful years with a theme of “Tin and Tiara’s”.

Over the last ten years, we have assisted hundreds of people in our regional area. In conjunction with an annual contribution from the Albury Commercial Club, we have raised over $123,000 in the last four years alone.

All money raised goes into Aspire’s unique Community Grants Scheme, which invites two rounds of Application Submissions each year.

You can be a part of this very special occasion by making a donation.  Your donation will be gratefully accepted and appreciated by so many. The goodwill and generosity of our community is what makes the Aspire Oaks Day Luncheon a success.
