Community Renewal Funds

FRRR offers Community Renewal Funds to support communities administering renewable energy benefit funds.

Operating at a regional, local, or town level, FRRR’s Community Renewal Funds enable communities, proponents and governments to work collaboratively to identify priorities, maximise impact and create long-term benefits.

For Communities

Host your own community benefit fund through FRRR – decide on priorities, how and what will receive support and invest funds for long term projects into the future – strengthening your community’s future. Work with us to set this up pre-emptively and ask your local renewable energy project to contribute into one pooled fund that you can lead, scaffolded with FRRR support.
Already hosting renewable energy projects in your community, but have questions or seeking additional support? Reach out to us for a chat about the ways in which FRRR can assist.

For Government and Corporates

FRRR provides an independent vehicle through which to administer local community benefit funds at a regional or local level – giving community greater voice in the distribution of these vital funds.
Join-up multiple benefit funds in a region to reduce administration and the burden of multiple small grant pathways in a community – unlock opportunities for large community-informed legacy projects.

FRRR provides:

An independent philanthropic vehicle trusted by government, corporates, philanthropy and community;
Expertise in enabling community-led and driven processes, backed by solid administration, compliance and governance;
Skilled end-to-end grant and funding partnership processes;
Support to walk alongside community, identifying an investment roadmap to guide the decisions of the Advisory Committee; and
Transparent and public reporting on distributions and impact (with options for audit oversight).
