Community Grants

Each year we allocate funds directly into the local community to assist with worthwhile projects and programs that are in need of a financial boost?

If your organisation is local to our club and could do with a hand up, maybe we can help.

A downloadable application form can be found at the top of our website under the heading 'Community Grants'

For consideration in the current round of grants, applications close 1st May, 2026

Congratulations to Eaglehawk Festivals - an amazing Dahlia & Arts Procession last Saturday with a wonderful variety of participants.

Our club's entry was voted 'Best Theme Entry' - this was a fantastic result, and our special thanks go to Secretary John Jones for his leadership and planning - a wonderful promotional launch for our 'Borough in Bloom - Bendigo Garden Expo' being held in Canterbury Park later this year!

and of course, we were proud to see the Citizen of the Year, Terry O'Brien leading the procession!

Citizen of the Year 2026

Rotary Club of Eaglehawk announced the Eaglehawk Citizen of the Year - congratulations to Terry O'Brien, a stalwart of the Eaglehawk Community, as a member of the Police force for some 52 years and stationed at Eaglehawk for the last 27 years, Terry's connection and commitment to the community were evident as the long list of his involvements was read to the crowd in attendance. Also lovely to see the many comments on the club's Facebook post from members of the community congratulating Terry on his award, great to see the community getting behind such a worthy recognition.

Thank you to all who came along to our celebrations, enjoying the occasion in the cool comfort of our beautiful Canterbury Gardens.
