The Ballaghveny Community Gain Fund (CGF) was established by Tipperary County Council (TCC) with the intention of helping the communities neighbouring the landfill by supporting positive local initiatives and activities in the local community.
The funds are available to support projects that are aligned with local needs such as the purchase of equipment, building, refurbishment work, etc.
The projects will need to be proposed by the project group for the benefit of a broad section of the community.
It is important that the project group be satisfactorily constituted, not-for-profit, tax compliant, with membership being open and non-discriminatory.
