What have past recipients said?

Chinchilla Community Kindergarten

“We were successful in receiving an Envirogrant, which enabled us to install solar panels on the building roof. These projects make a significant difference to our operating costs and allow us to be more environmentally aware.” 

The Gums State School

"The kids love the vegetable garden we were able to install thanks to the Envirogrants program. They love to watch the plants grow, and are so proud of themselves when they get to pick and eat their very own vegetables. They have learned so much about where food comes from, and have enjoyed the responsibility of caring for the garden and the environment."

Moonie State School

“This grant will help fund stage one of a community garden at the Moonie State School, which will be open to not only the children, but the whole of the Moonie community. Our vision is a community garden which will promote health and wellbeing and provide an educational experience to everyone who comes to enjoy it. The support of Council and Iolar Operational Services is hugely important in allowing us to undertake this project, and I encourage other community groups around the region to take advantage of funding opportunities when they are available."
