COMMUNITY BENEFIT FUND GRANT
Thanks to the Gambling Community Benefit Fund the Noosa Museum now has ceiling insulation. The Museum recently received a $2 955 grant from the Fund. The insulation has been installed and will be of great benefit in keeping out the summer heat. We very much appreciate receiving this grant.
