CDSE Funding

The Community Development and Support Expenditure (CDSE) Scheme is a statewide initiative that recognises the significant financial support for projects and services that local Clubs make in contributing to the wellbeing of their communities. This funding provides the opportunity for local projects to apply for funding from local Clubs under the scheme. Campbelltown City Council & Sector Connect are responsible for overseeing the administration of CDSE in Campbelltown.

The CDSE funding program for 2011 has now been finalised.  The timetable for CDSE funding applications for 2012 will be issued by the CDSE Committee in early 2012. Please visit this page closer to this time for more information.

Campbelltown Catholic Club continues to exceed our minimum donation requirements under CDSE with donations in 2009/10 exceeding our obligation by 50%. Campbelltown Catholic Club has a strong involvement in the local community and is committed to providing significant programs and assistance through funding.
