Friends of Parks and Nature Grant Program

Grant Description

The Friends of Parks and Nature Grant Program 2025–26 provides competitive grants of up to $15,000 (GST exclusive) to support incorporated Friends of Parks and Nature (FOPN) member groups across South Australia to deliver conservation outcomes. Funding targets on-ground activities that protect biodiversity and care for Aboriginal cultural heritage and European heritage across national parks, reserves and approved off-park locations, aligned with relevant management or biodiversity plans. A total pool of up to $700,000 is available in 2025–26, with projects able to run for up to 18 months from payment, benefitting volunteer-led groups working to restore ecosystems, habitats and heritage values.
