FUNDING & SPONSORS

KBULG is funded by a diverse range of sponsors.

These organisations share a partnership with KBULG to achieve its vision of promoting landcare and environmental quality of life in Kalgoorlie-Boulder. KBULG acknowledges the vital role of sponsors to its operations and works with core sponsors throughout the year.

Core sponsors provide a base level of funding for the core activities of KBULG including salaries, vehicle, administration and office costs, and ongoing projects like Junior Landcare, Tree Planting, KBULG Newsletter and Regeneration Zone Management. However, KBULG has to apply for funding for specific projects.
