Applicants should be located in the Latrobe Valley, but will be considered from across the Gippsland region if the funded program will be of benefit to those living in the Latrobe Valley.
Yes. The Loy Yang B Community Partnership Program focuses on community projects taking place in the Latrobe Valley and Gippsland, and only those projects that benefit our local community will be considered.
We offer small, one-off grants of up to $5,000 and also opportunities for partnerships which are for larger amounts and extend over a couple of years. The amount on offer depends on the budget year to year. Applicants must be able to demonstrate the capacity to contribute to the funding of the project/activity.
Note: Only small grants will be offered during the 2025/26 grant period (1 May 2025-26 May 2025).
A small grant is a single application for an amount of up to $5,000. This is a one-off payment to assist with a project or activity which will commence in the 12 months from approval.
A partnership is a longer term arrangement under which we work with an organisation to achieve positive outcomes for the Latrobe Valley. We enter into a written agreement with our partners to set out the terms of what is expected from both the recipient and the sponsor.
Partnerships run for up to three years and see Loy Yang B make an annual payment to a group or organisation for an agreed amount each year (for example $20,000 per year for three years) to deliver a larger project. You are required to submit additional information to support your application for a partnership.
