The Queensland Government established the Gambling Community Benefit Fund (GCBF) in 1994 to provide funding to community groups in Queensland.

One-off grants of up to $35,000 (inclusive of GST) are allocated to approved not-for-profit organisations to help them provide community services or activities that benefit the Queensland community.

Read the funding guidelines for information on eligible organisations, eligible items, the assessment process, grant agreements and related information.

The GCBF receives money from gambling taxes. It distributes these funds to not-for-profit community groups on a quarterly basis. The current round closes on 28 February 2014.
