The program continues to strengthen community connections across the Mid West, following successful partnerships with local organisations such as the Geraldton Surf Life Saving Club, ATLAS, Theatre 8 Inc and the Geraldton Tree Canopy Advocates.
Now entering its fifth year, the NFP Partnership Program enables Mid West Ports to build long-term relationships with community-focused organisations making a meaningful difference in the region.
Through the program, selected partners receive a combination of financial and in-kind assistance, to support their growth and build their capacity.
Mid West Ports CEO Damian Tully said the program reflects Mid West Ports’ ongoing commitment to supporting the region it serves.
“Our Not-for-Profit Partnership Program has created genuine, lasting connections across the Mid West,” Mr Tully said. “By working alongside organisations like ATLAS, Theatre 8 Inc. and the Geraldton Tree Canopy Advocates, we’ve seen the positive, community-wide impact that collaboration can achieve.”
Organisations applying for the 2026 program are encouraged to demonstrate alignment with Mid West Ports’ core values of accountability, caring, courage, collaboration, and integrity. Priority will be given to initiatives that contribute to environmental sustainability, community welfare, youth education, and Indigenous support programs.
