Our Community
Loy Yang B has been a part of the Latrobe Valley community since 1993. We are committed to supporting the community in which we live and work, maintaining strong connections, and making a positive difference for organisations that contribute to our society and environment. Our community partnership program doesn’t only provide funding for worthwhile activities and events – we seek to form lasting relationships with the groups and organisations which run them and get involved in these activities wherever possible. It also helps fulfil our social responsibility to the local community.
You can read about our previous Community Partnerships on the Community Partnership Archive page.

We loved walking in this morning to such a fresh look. We really can’t thank them enough” – ABLFFK founder Heather Baird. |
