Easternwell, an integrated energy and mining services provider, is opening its next round of community grants on 23 February 2012. With a specific focus on the Pilbara, over $40, 000 worth of funding will be awarded to community groups, clubs, and associations in two rounds over the next 12 months.
The Easternwell Community Grants program seeks to provide financial and social assistance to the regions in which it has key operations. It aims to strengthen community groups in a number of different areas including education, health, indigenous, safety, training and youth.
Groups within the community which are looking for support to purchase equipment, to improve, commence building or to develop training programs are all examples of projects which will be looked upon favourably during assessment by the selection panel.
Mr Troy Campbell, Easternwell CEO says: “Our community grants program is very important to our company ethos and Easternwell is committed to helping organisations in the regions where we conduct business. This program was designed to reach out to smaller organisations which are essential in the building of diverse and connected communities.”
The Easternwell Community Grants awards $40,000 spread across two rounds assessed bi-annually with the next round opening 23 February 2012. Eligible groups may apply for funding up to $2,000. Application forms for round two must be received by 23 March 2012.
