Morawa Community Trust
Under an agreement with Midwest Corporation Limited, a Public Benefit Agreement has been established to support the Morawa community. To be known as the Morawa Community Trust (MCT), the quarterly allocation of funds will assist groups that are able to demonstrate that their activities benefit the Morawa community.
This Fund is administered by the Shire of Morawa under the direction of a Committee consisting of the Shire President, two members of the Morawa community appointed by the Council, and a representative of Midwest Corporation Limited. The current community members of the Morawa Community Trust Committee are Ms Marie Marks and Mrs Bronwyn Thornton. If you have any queries regarding the fund please feel free to contact either of these committee members.
2006 was the first year in which the Morawa Community Trust was operational. The success of the program in its first year was outstanding with approximately $140,000 being shared amongst twelve community projects.
