Applications are now open for this year’s round of the Greater Western Water (GWW) Thriving Communities grants and sponsorship program.

Thriving Communities has been running since 2022, offering funding to community-led groups and projects that are creating opportunities across our service region.

GWW general manager strategy and partnerships Kessia Thomson said groups could apply for up to $20,000 for projects that are locally led and benefit our customers and community.

“In previous rounds, GWW has funded a wide range of projects, activities and organisations and we hope this year is no different,” she said.

“Our eligibility criteria support local organisations with innovative ideas to help our communities thrive.”

“We are looking to invest in locally led initiatives for big returns on community wellbeing and care for country in the west. If you are working on something that creates opportunity, sustainability, inclusion or equity, we want to hear from you.”

An online information session is on March 13, at 7pm, where the GWW team will explain the grant guidelines, how to apply and answer any questions.

Applications are open from March 6 until April 10. Successful recipients will be notified in June.
