Grant Background: The Community Heritage Grants (CHG) program supports community-based organisations to identify and care for Australian cultural heritage collections which are publicly accessible, locally held and nationally significant.
Organisations progress through a three-stage journey to document their collection, identify collection care recommendations and with funding support, implement practical improvements and enhancements. CHG projects also aim to build the collections management knowledge and skills and capacity of paid and volunteer staff to preserve, interpret and share valuable heritage collections with all Australians.
