Backed by Veolia’s Woodlawn Eco-Precinct, the Veolia Mulwaree Trust manages and distributes funds to not-for-profit community groups and organisations for the benefit of the former-Mulwaree Shire Council area and its immediate surrounds.
Previously an open-cut copper, lead, and zinc mine, Woodlawn is now the location of a Mechanical and Biological Treatment (MBT) facility and Bioreactor landfill, with the surrounding 6000 hectares used for aquaculture, horticulture, wind and solar farming, and other renewable technologies.
Through the Veolia Mulwaree Trust, we are able to give back to the communities we operate in. The trust has supported local schools and preschools, sporting facilities, parks and playgrounds, emergency services, charities, and community service organisations. The trust also supports a range of academic and creative arts scholarships annually. Since 2005, the Veolia Mulwaree Trust has celebrated 20+ years of investing over $15.7 million in more than 2,200 community projects, and academic and arts scholarships.
