Queensland branches – Queensland Community Gambling Grant

Great news for Queensland branches, we are eligible to apply for funding in the next funding round commencing 1st December 2024.
Queensland branches can apply for funding to purchase capital items, giveaway merchandise and other bee associated equipment. Our previous applications have enabled branches to purchase marquees, bee vacuums, display hives, laptops, communication equipment, microscopes, fridge magnets, stubby coolers, table covers, feathers, to name a few. If you would like to participate in the next round, you will need to get written quotes (including delivery and GST) and forward these to our Treasurer. Where the item is of a large value obtain an alternate quote. We have used Extreme Marquees in Brisbane for marquees, flags, table covers, they have our standard artwork and supply high quality products.

Our Treasurer will collate the application and lodge it; it can take up to three months to be approved and then another 3 months before the funding is received. We cannot purchase any items before funding is received. Once funding has been received, branches should then
purchase the items and send a tax bill made out to ANBA to the Treasurer who will collate these and submit our grant acquittal. Its that easy!
