ClubGRANTS is a state-wide initiative that provides financial support for projects and services that contribute to the wellbeing of local communities.

Each year through ClubGRANTS, clubs across NSW provide support to tens of thousands of local community organisations, sporting groups, and charities that make a difference in their local area.

The funding is provided by six registered clubs across the shire. They are the Bermagui Country Club, Club Bega, Club Sapphire Merimbula, Eden Fishermen’s Recreation Club, Merimbula RSL and Tura Beach Country Club.
