The Goulburn Valley Water program returns following the success of last year’s campaign, which saw more than 40 groups take part.
GVW is again encouraging applications for sponsorship support.
With only 3000 bottles available, groups are urged to apply early.
Applications open April 14 and close May 16.
Successful applicants will receive up to 100 reusable water bottles to support healthy hydration and promote environmental responsibility through tap water.
GVW managing director Steve Capewell said the program had been widely embraced by the community.
“Our winter drink bottle giveaway is a small way of supporting junior participants in sport and community activity, while also promoting the Choose Tap message to the next generation,” he said.
Last year’s participants included sporting groups, primary schools, Kyabram Blue Light Disco, Bonnie Doon Youth Group, along with Girl Guide and Scout groups.
All youth-based organisations are eligible to apply.
