Minara Community Foundation

Murrin Murrin Operations established the Minara Community Foundation in 2007 for the long-term benefit of the people in the northern Goldfields region, in particular communities near our operations.

The Foundation supports charitable projects for community benefit across a range of focus areas:

• education, including training opportunities
• health and other social benefits
• economic development
• environment
• programs and initiatives for youth and future generations
• culture and heritage, including the protection of Indigenous culture.

Projects and initiatives should incorporate community consultation and support, and offer a demonstrable benefit to the community.  

The community accesses funding through an application process.  Groups and organisations with activities and purposes that benefit local communities within the Shires of Laverton, Leonora and Menzies are prioritized during review and approvals processes.

Minara Community Foundation has assisted the northern Goldfields community with over 140 projects since 2008.  

Minara Resources, our voluntary Local Advisory Committee and Equity Trustees work together for the benefit of the local community to oversee the governance and administration of the Foundation and the ongoing grant programs.
