The Draft Community Sponsorship Program Policy outlines the principles of the Community Sponsorship Program and provide clear and transparent guide on the provision, assessment and determination of the Community Sponsorship Program. The Community Sponsorship Program supports opportunities for Council to partner with our community and upholds the community vision as found in the Community Strategic Plan. Council will continue to harness the ideas, energy and knowledge of our community to plan and deliver programs and projects that support a connected, healthy, resilient and inclusive Hawkesbury.

Working together in partnership with the community to identify and respond to the needs within the community is one of the important responsibilities of Council. One of the ways that Council does this is to provide financial and practical support to resource our community to lead and achieve the outcomes they want for their communities. The Community Sponsorship Program provides the basis for Council to allocate funds under Section 356 of the Local Government Act, 1993 (NSW) in an equitable manner, based on the individual merits of requests for financial assistance from Council.
