Good Morning Macarthur’s Community Studio will soon open its doors, thanks to a Community Building Partnerships grant.

This facility will enable us as a community to embrace our diversity, share our stories through film, music and spoken word, and we are grateful to our State Member Greg Warren for helping us to secure the grant.

Twelve Campbelltown organisations in total will share in the 2022 Community Building Partnerships grants to fund smartboards, community transport vehicles and spectator seating among other projects.

Campbelltown MP Greg Warren said he was thrilled to have helped these community projects.

“These projects will make an enormous difference to many people within our community,” he said.

“I am so proud to have worked with our community to secure many Community Building Partnerships grants since first being elected as the Member for Campbelltown in 2015.”

Up to $400,000 was available for projects in each state electorate as part of the program.

This year’s successful applicants in Campbelltown are:

  • WILMA Women’s Health Centre – $20,811 to improve kitchen space
  • Woodland Road Public School P&C – $91,000 for Special Programs Area
  • Ruse Football Club – $14,500 for spectator seating
  • NSW Harness Racing Club – $55,000 for mini van for local Dharawal community
  • Campbelltown Ghosts Baseball Club – $12,999 for lawn mower for home field
  • Beverley Park School P&C – $75,000 to secure access to school
  • Dignity Ltd – $25,000 for homelessness and employment assistance vehicle

  • Rainbow Crossing – $16,872 for Good Morning Macarthur Community Studio
  • Macarthur Football Association – $5,990 for fully monitored publicly accessible defibrillator.

“This is a wonderful result not only for those successful organisations, but also the many people who will benefit from these projects,” Mr Warren said.
