Gozo Minister Clint Camilleri has launched two schemes to support the work and operation of voluntary organisations and sports associations which are based in Gozo.
He announced that this year the Ministry for Gozo is reallocating €120,000 for the Gozo NGO Fund 2022 and € 75,000 for the Promotion of Sports, Initiatives and Facilities Scheme.
“These schemes are intended for the Ministry for Gozo to assist voluntary organisations that will be implementing a project, event or carrying out an initiative for the benefit of the Gozitan community and to strengthen and support volunteering. in Gozo,” he said.
It was explained that in each scheme the financial aid granted is a reimbursement of the costs incurred. For this year it has been decided to issue a call for proposals at the beginning of the year and if the need arises, based on demand from the sector, another call will be issued during the year.
In addition, voluntary organisations will be given the option to carry out their project / initiative within 12 months of the date of the grant agreement.
The Minister for Gozo invited voluntary organisations to submit their application in the new calls.
He said that over the past year, the funds allocated have been an effective support for the voluntary sector so that their work can continue.
About 18 voluntary organisations applied for the Gozo NGO Fund 2021 with almost €90,000 allocated. For the 2021 Sports Scheme, there were nine applicants who received around €45,000.

We all know that any ‘culture’ or ‘sports’ funding this minister gets his hands on will end up with his friends of the hunting lobby. Disgraceful and nobody will do anything about it.
Vote all of these crooks out and get some decent people to represent you (instead of blindly supporting more grabbers from ‘your party’ based on how impressed you are with their irrelevant academic titles).
