Community Grants Program

Twice a year, in April and October, AGL Hydro invites community groups and organisations to apply for support through the Community Grants Program.

If your organisation needs support for upcoming activities or events that align with our Community Grants Program Guidelines, we encourage you to submit an application.

The program reinvests part of Hydro’s revenue into supporting local projects, events and initiatives that benefit the broader community around the Hydro Operations in Mount Beauty, Eildon and Rubicon.

The program is open to community groups and organisations in the Alpine, Murrindindi Shires, Towong Shire and aims to have lasting benefits to the communities that we operate in. Our goal is to create positive social, environmental and economic outcomes as our business grows.

Refer to the Community Grants Program Guidelines for more information Community Grants Program Guidelines (PDF).

Application for the Hydro Community Grants Program are now open and will close on Friday 30 October.

Community Partnerships Program

We’re committed to supporting the communities where we live and work. Through our Community Partnerships Program, we collaborate with local organisations to drive positive change across the Hunter.

Our key partners include:

Kangaroo Hoppet Sponsorship: AGL is proud to support the Kangaroo Hoppet, a cornerstone event that celebrates endurance, community spirit and the unique alpine environment of northeast Victoria. Our commitment to Australian athletes is reflected in the fact that six of the eight crosscountry Olympians competing at the 2026 Winter Olympic Games were supported through AGL scholarships. By backing the Kangaroo Hoppet, we’re helping build pathways from grassroots participation to the world stage.
Dolly Parton Imagination Library Sponsorship: Delivering a book every month into a child's home to foster their love of reading, their home learning environment and their readiness for school.
Mount Beauty Writers Festival Sponsorship: AGL is delighted to support the Mount Beauty Writers Festival, which brings together storytellers, thinkers and readers in the heart of the Victorian Alps. The festival strengthens regional culture by fostering creativity, conversation and connection. Through this sponsorship, AGL is proud to champion the arts and the vital role they play in vibrant regional communities.
Eildon Events Sponsorship: AGL is proud to support Eildon Events Inc, a communityled organisation that delivers inclusive cultural experiences such as the Eildon Twilight Market and the Eildon Twilight Serenade, formerly known as Opera at Eildon, held on the banks of the Eildon Pondage. Through artisan markets, live music, and highquality operatic performances in a regional setting, Eildon Events brings locals and visitors together while showcasing local producers, artists and performers. AGL’s sponsorship supports Eildon Events’ strong focus on community connection, cultural access and fundraising for local projects, helping ensure these events continue to benefit the Eildon region.
