Animal Welfare Organisations

Strengthening Community Service Delivery

Strengthening Community Service Delivery grants have been developed to add value to the various not-for-profit community services available to the Western Australian Community. They recognise the critical role played by community services in helping to improve the quality of life for our citizens.

Priority for these grants is given to:

• Organisations that provide support to disadvantaged people or groups
• Proposals that will provide a broad community benefit

Lotterywest may support established organisations that provide a service caring for sick, injured or abandoned animals or birds with their infrastructure needs.

A subsidy may also be provided towards the costs of sterilisation of pets (cats and dogs) provided by registered veterinary practices (for health card holders and people on low incomes) but which are facilitated through established and recognised not for profit animal welfare groups.

Lotterywest previously limited grants to animal welfare organisation to up to $25,000 over three years. Organisations no longer need to limit their request to this amount although requests for larger amounts must be strongly substantiated and reflect the nature and scope of the organisation and its work within the community.
