Count Me In
Small contributions. Shared decisions. Lasting community impact.
What if we all chipped in to make our community a better place?
Count Me In is a collective giving initiative that puts the power to create change in the hands of the community. By bringing together local people, families, businesses and community-minded supporters, we can pool our contributions to support the grassroots projects that make our region a better place to live, connect and belong.
From bringing people together and boosting wellbeing to creating opportunities and building local pride, it’s about backing the ideas that come from within our community.
Every contribution counts. Every voice matters.
A contribution of $250 gets you involved, but you can give more if you wish. And here’s the best part: you get a say in where the money goes. Every $250 contributed earns you one vote, giving you a direct voice in choosing the community projects you’d love to see supported.
It’s community giving, with community choice at its heart.
Making a difference today. Building for tomorrow.
Count Me In is designed to do more than fund great ideas today. It’s about creating a lasting source of support for our community into the future.
We split the funds raised equally:
50% goes straight back into the community through grants supporting local, community-led projects.
50% is invested for the future, helping grow the fund so it can continue supporting community initiatives for years to come.
Imagine 500 people each contributing $250. That’s $125,000 raised together, with $62,500 going straight back into the community through grants, while the other half helps build an ongoing source of funding for the future.
Now imagine what we could achieve as a community.
Be part of the story.
Count Me In is about more than money. It’s about people coming together, having a voice and taking pride in the place we call home.
Throughout the campaign, we’ll also celebrate the generosity of our supporters, recognising the individuals, families and businesses who choose to be acknowledged.
Whether you’re an individual, a local family, a business or a community organisation, there’s a place for you in this.
Your contribution. Your vote. Our community.
Count Me In. What could we make happen together?
