Be Connected grants offered by Good Things empower community organisations to provide digital inclusion support to over 50s in their communities.
Under the Digital Devices Grant, organisations receive $5,000 funding to purchase devices and create a digital device library, which they then loan to people over 50 in their community, helping them access technology.
Community organisations submit an online application, including a project plan and budget, outlining how the funds will be used and the impact they would have in their community. Applications are assessed and reviewed by our grants team in line with the grant guidelines for each round.
Congratulations to our network partners funded to create digital device loan libraries in communities across Australia!
