Before proceeding, please confirm the following:
- you have read and understood the program guidelines.
- you are able to demonstrate alignment between your project and the aims of this program.
- your organisation is a not-for-profit organisation or a local government authority.
- your organisation is incorporated, or is auspiced by an incorporated organisation/local government authority for the purposes of this application.
- your organisation is located in Australia and delivering services in Western Australia.
- your organisation does not have a 'Failed to Acquit' letter from the Department of Communities as a result of outstanding acquittals from previous funding or grants.
Please note application limits.
- Eligible organisations may submit one application only per Outcome Focus Area.
- If considering applying for grant funding under multiple Outcome Focus Areas, a separate application form must be submitted per Outcome Focus Area.
- Where a grant Outcome Focus Area has two funding tiers, organisations may only apply for one funding tier.
- Incorporated organisations may auspice multiple unincorporated organisations and may still submit one application per Outcome Focus Area for their own organisation.
Notes for Unincorporated Groups or Associations
Important: Unincorporated groups cannot receive grant funding directly.
If the organisation undertaking the project is unincorporated, the grant must be applied for through an auspice that is either:
- a not-for-profit incorporated organisation, or
- a local government authority.
The auspicing organisation is considered the administering or applicant organisation and will take on administrative, legal, and financial responsibility for the grant. This includes:
- accepting and adhering to all terms and conditions of the grant,
- maintaining appropriate financial records, and
- submitting all required reports and documentation on behalf of the project.
- Should the application be successful, the funding agreement will be established with the auspicing organisation, who will also receive and distribute the grant funding on behalf of the project.
Where applicants are using an auspice, to complete the application, enter the unincorporated groups details in the organisation section and select unincorporated group as the entity type. This will prompt access to an additional application page to capture the auspice's details and allow upload of the Auspice Arrangement Letter.
Sole traders are not eligible to submit an application to this Grants Program either as an applicant or auspiced by an eligible incorporated not for profit organisation or local government authority.
If you are a sole trader and wish to be involved in relevant project delivery, you will need to be part of a consortia or partnership where the main applicant is an eligible applicant, as outlined above.
