Sharing the news!

You’ve heard word from us that your grant application has been a success?

We’d love you to share the good news and hear about how your organisation is making a difference to the Western Australian community.

Getting the word out that you have received a Lotterywest grant lets people know that the money spent on Lotterywest games supports WA community organisations. It’s also a great opportunity to raise your profile.

Here’s how we can work together to spread the word.

Share with us

We know that there are many Lotterywest supported organisations out there that are helping to build a better WA. We hear inspirational stories about a range of Lotterywest supported projects - and we want to hear from you too.

Call us or give us a shout out on social media with your updates and photos so we can share your news. Tag @Lotterywest on Facebook, Instagram and Twitter and use our popular hashtag #Lotterywest.

Share with the media

Use the following handy tips to get your story out there:

  • Let us know that you would like to send a media release. We can help with key messages.
  • Include your organisation’s name and contact details
  • Give brief, compelling information and include direct personal quotes from your spokesperson
  • Send a clear and informative photo (at least 300 dpi high quality resolution) and suggest interesting photo/filming options

Share with your community

To share updates about your Lotterywest supported project, we suggest keeping an eye out for interesting photo opportunities relating to your grant. Here are some tips on how to capture the impact of your project.

We have produced short video clips to help show that by playing Lotterywest games, people are helping to support the WA community. These can be provided to you to share, just contact us.

You can also spread the word in your newsletters and other communication. Here are some key points to get you started or you can download detailed key messages here.

  • Lotterywest is unique. It is the only lottery in Australia, and one of the few in the world, where the profits are returned back to the local community.
  • Lotterywest’s support for the community is possible only because of the small businesses and players that support the purchase of Lotterywest games. 
  • When you play Lotterywest games the money stays in WA via grants, prizes and employment opportunities for locals.

Order Lotterywest supported signage

By displaying Lotterywest branded signs and stickers you’re letting people know that every time you play a Lotterywest game, you’re supporting great community activities and organisations.
