Thank you to everyone that submitted a Community Fund application and attended the presentation evening on Wednesday 30 October.
This year’s presentation evening was held at the Dennis Family Corporation’s Manor Lakes Estate, with Dennis Family Corporation Group Director, Grant Dennis on hand to congratulate each of the not-for-profit groups that successfully applied. We look forward to hearing the impact these grants have on the local community.
Twenty local not-for-profit groups from within the Manor Lakes area have been awarded a share of $30,000 at Manor Lakes Community Fund evening, run by the Dennis Family Corporation.
This year’s event marks 22 years of Community Funds and over $1.3 million distributed across Dennis Family Corporation’s residential estates in Melbourne and Queensland since the concept was introduced in the early 2000s.
Held at Manor Lakes’ Sales Centre, Dennis Family Group Director, Dennis Grant hosted the event, which has become an annual highlight for the community developer.
Did you know that engaging in acts of kindness produces endorphins, which improves your mood and creates positive emotions?
Wednesday 13th November is ‘World Kindness Day’ and the b kinder foundation is encouraging all residents to walk and pledge as much as you can. Encourage family and friends to walk down the street, take a stroll along one of the many nature trails or take the kids to the playground.
Thank you to everyone who attended Jazz in the Park. It was fabulous to see so many familiar faces from our community enjoying the smooth tunes from ILY and DJ/Sax combo Henrique and Richard!
We've had over a decade of Spooktacular fun at Manor Lakes, however we are saying a fond farewell to this beloved annual celebration as you know it.
Manor Lakes locals Maria and Andy (affectionally known as our 'Halloween Heroes'), started this event 11 years ago as a way to break the ice and get to know their neighbours. Spooktacular has grown significantly from its humble origins and the event has raised thousands over the years for the Starlight Foundation—including over $15,000 in 2023 alone.
Grants are a great way to get funding and support for your local community initiative or not-for-profit group. Writing a successful grant application takes research, understanding the process, preparing your application, and then waiting to hear back.
Whether you're applying to the Manor Lakes Community Fund or another important grant, give it your best shot!
A great application can be the difference between receiving much-needed support and not being considered.
