Becoming a partner

Alcoa of Australia’s Partnerships budget for 2009 and 2010 has now been fully committed.  As such, we are not accepting any further proposals for national or regional partnerships.
 
Some of our local sites have a limited budget for new partnerships, please check our guidelines carefully before submitting an application.
 
Alcoa’s Partnering Stronger Communities program was created in response to the needs of the communities in which Alcoa operates, and beyond.

In addition to these flagship partnerships, we have many local partnerships supporting the communities around our operations.

Please note, our budgets for 2009 and 2010 have now been fully committed to delivering this program.  Alcoa of Australia is not able to accept any further proposals for national or regional partnerships.
Some of our local sites have a limited budget for new partnerships, please check our guidelines carefully before submitting an application.
 
The global financial crisis has impacted Alcoa as it has everyone, and in an endeavour to maintain a sustainable business and preserve jobs, we have reduced spend across the business.  While this temporarily prohibits us from engaging in any new partnership agreements, it does not mean a reduced commitment to supporting our communities.
