Eligibility and Applicant Details

* indicates a required field.

Confirmation of Eligibility

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 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.

Eligible organisations may submit one application only to the Grants Program. In the instance that an organisation submits more than one application, Communities will only progress one application to the evaluation panel for assessment.

If the organisation undertaking the project is not incorporated, 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.

Organisations acting as an auspice for unincorporated groups may still submit one application for their own organisation and may auspice multiple applications for different unincorporated organisations.

You must confirm that all statements above are true and correct. * Required
