Successful applicants include the Carrickroe Community Centre (€2,022), Monaghan Youth Federation (€915), Glaslough Development Association (€697), Mullyash Community Daycare Centre (€697) and Tydavnet Village Community Centre (€614).
Meanwhile in Co Cavan, a total of €200 has been awarded to the Church of Ireland Kilmore Cathedral.
Speaking on this announcement, Minister Humphreys said; “I am delighted today to announce the fourth tranche of successful applicants under the Community and Voluntary Energy Support Scheme. The funding today provides further support to this vital sector, with some 128 organisations to benefit.
"Our community and voluntary groups continue to feel the pressure as a result of increased energy costs. Hundreds of organisations have now been supported by this scheme and we look forward to announcing further funding in the weeks to come.”
