The Northern Rivers Community Foundation (NRCF) has announced the largest ever funding contribution of $327,177 distributed amongst a record 49 recipients across the 7 LGA’s of the Northern Rivers.
Projects in 2022 will span across disadvantage, housing & homelessness, recovery & resilience and the environment.
