Sponsorship Program

Jacana Energy continues our commitment to the Northern Territory community with our Sponsorship Program.

Sponsorships of up to $20,000 are available each year for not-for-profit organisations, community groups and charities, towards community initiatives that benefit everyday Territorians.

What will we sponsor?

We’ll consider all initiatives that:

• provide a benefit to the Northern Territory community
• align with Jacana Energy’s values: Honesty, Diversity, Teamwork, Innovation and Wellbeing.

This includes but is not limited to:

• community education
• training/skill building
• cultural awareness
• venue hire, equipment or materials towards an event or initiative
• travel within the Northern Territory or Australia.

The sponsorship program is competitive with applications assessed against alignment with the criteria.

Exclusions 

• Proposals that do not reflect Jacana Energy’s brand and values.
• Commercial, for-profit businesses.
• Activities outside the reach of Jacana Energy’s community.
• Projects that are the operational responsibility of federal, state, territory or local government.
• Applications from political organisations or campaigns.
• Activities that may be considered divisive in the community.
• Applications from religious organisations for religious purposes.
• Funding to employ people to work directly on a project (however, funding may be provided to assist a not-for-profit organisation to employ staff).
• Applications from individuals raising funds on behalf of an organisation which is already receiving funding from Jacana Energy.
• Individual sporting clubs (however, applications from sporting peak bodies may be considered).
