Media release – ESV’s Safer Canteens Grants investing in community football
Energy Safe Victoria (ESV) has delivered $30,000 in funding to community football and netball clubs across Victoria.
In partnership with AFL Victoria, Safer Canteens allows ESV to promote community safety while at the same time providing individual grants of up to $1000 to replace old, defective, inefficient or even dangerous gas or electrical appliances.
The canteen forms the financial backbone for most clubs but sadly is often underfunded.
For the last three years Safer Canteens has sought to address this. ESV has invested $80,000 in new fridges, ovens and pie warmers. We have supported clubs that have been through drought, bushfire, flood and most recently coronavirus (COVID-19).
