Community Funding and Grants

Collgar Renewables is excited to help build the capacity and long-term sustainability of the communities in which it operates. The Collgar Community Fund (CCF) currently provides funding to local initiatives that benefit the Shire of Merredin and surrounding areas. Supported initiatives strengthen the local community through programs that make a positive and lasting contribution, and enhance the Merredin region and surrounding areas.

Over the lifespan of the fund, Collgar is proud that it has provided over $1.2 million dollars to the local community.
