Foster's Announces New Community Grants Program
Deadline: April 28, 2006

Foster's, a beverage company based in Melbourne, Australia, has announced a new initiative of the Foster's in the Community Program. The Foster's Community Grants Program will award grants to community-building projects in the fields of wellness, culture, and the environment. Applications are open to charities and not-for-profit organizations in Australia and the United States.

Foster's defines "wellness" as both physical and mental health; "culture" as artistic, sporting, and educational activities; and "environment" as all aspects of the natural environment. The program is designed to support specific projects and programs rather than ongoing administrative costs and is designed to complement the grassroots, local nature of the other elements of Fosters' community engagement activity.

Foster's Community Grants will conduct two funding rounds per year. For more information visit the Foster's Web Site http://www.fosters.com.au/about/fosterscommunitygrants.htm.
