NATIONAL TALK BLACK – 30/01/2025

On todays National Talk Black via NIRS – National Indigenous Radio Service we have:

Lauren Ryan, Youth Futures Manager at Foundation for Rural & Regional Renewal (FRRR), talking about Backing the Future for rural youth in QLD – Grants available. FRRR and VFFF are inviting applications from eligible individuals for grants of $50,000 through the Backing the Future program. The funding supports people aged 18+ to develop innovative ideas that enhance the lives of people aged 12-30 in remote, rural and regional QLD. FRRR encourages anyone interested in applying to reach out to FRRR’s Youth Futures team to have a chat about the potential project. To ensure as many people as possible hear about opportunity, FRRR staff will be visiting in the Burnett and Emerald regions. Dates and venues will be shared on FRRR’s social media channels and the team is excited about the opportunity to meet face to face with the hidden gems who are quietly doing work in community.
