Gambling Community Benefit Fund super round applications now open  

• Not-for-profit organisations can now apply for the latest round of the Gambling Community Benefit Fund.
• Round 124 is a Super Round – offering grants of up to $100,000 and injecting approximately $30 million into Queensland communities.
• Applications will focus on supporting natural disaster recovery and close 18 July 2025. 

The Crisafulli Government has launched the latest round of the Gambling Community Benefit Fund, offering grants of up to $100,000 to help not-for-profit organisations deliver services and assist natural disaster recovery efforts. 

Approximately $30 million in funding is available to support a wide range of community projects and services, including: 

• natural disaster recovery
• creating accessible events and outfitting spaces for community use
• upgrading equipment, vehicles, or infrastructure
• enhancing grassroots sport and recreation facilities. 

Attorney-General, Minister for Justice and Minister for Integrity Deb Frecklington said Queenslanders were known for their community spirit and willingness to lend a hand, and the fund helped to provide financial backing in support. 

“Whether it’s repairing community facilities, providing resources to get services back on track, protecting our environment or hosting events, grants of up to $100,000 will make a real difference to Queenslanders as they recover,” Attorney-General Frecklington said. 

“With more than $1 billion already invested in communities, the program empowers not-for-profit organisations across rural centres, towns and cities.  

“Following recent natural disasters, the Crisafulli Government rescheduled the super round to give impacted organisations the time they need to apply and will prioritise applications that support recovery efforts.”
