To achieve our vision, we aim to provide funds across five priority areas:
- Inclusive thriving community
- Connected cultural experiences
- Protected sustainable ecosystems
- Smart innovative society
- Active healthy people
For each priority area there are supporting statements that highlight what outcomes you should be seeking to achieve from your idea to support the Western Australian community. If you need support, we can work with you to understand how your idea contributes towards achieving one or more of these outcomes.
These priorities have been informed by research, data, and consultation to maximise the positive impact from our lottery games profits. Our grants are delivered through three grant programs detailed below.
We are committed to maximising the positive impact of our grants for the WA community. This includes looking beyond the direct outcomes of an initiative to promoting practices that are inclusive, healthy, sustainable and respectful of Traditional Custodians and Country.
That’s why, starting from 1 January 2024 our Good Practice Requirements will apply to all applications. We encourage you to start thinking about how well the requirements align to your current practices and how to incorporate new measures to increase the positive impact of your initiative.
And remember, you are not alone, our team is here to help you think about what you need in order to meet the Good Practice Requirements.
