partnerships

Arc Infrastructure is part of regional Western Australian communities and want our involvement to be long-lasting, meaningful and positive.

We achieve this by collaborating with grassroots and charitable organisations to deliver practical programs that address the unique needs of their communities.

Some of our major partnerships include:

Constable Care Foundation

Arc Infrastructure is proud to be a Foundation Partner of the Constable Care Safety School, WA’s first experiential road and transport safety centre.

As a Foundation Partner, the business made a significant funding commitment to the building and operation of the school. Arc donated, modified and installed rail and signalling equipment to create a scaled down version of a functioning level crossing as part of the rail safety element of the site.

Aimed at children from 4-11 years, the school is modelled on Perth’s streets, including model heritage buildings, a working rail platform, pedestrian and level crossings, and traffic lights and intersections.

The innovative space provides a realistic urban environment where children can practice road, rail and public transport safety skills.

Since 2023, Arc Infrastructure has gifted over 35 free excursions to Constable Care Safety School (valued at $698.50 each) to regional and Perth Metro schools near the freight rail network during Rail Safety Week, an annual community awareness week held in Australia and New Zealand, designed to engage the community in safe rail practices.

As well as enabling CCF in-school rail safety programs and excursions to Constable Care Safety School for primary school students, Arc Infrastructure has partnered with CCF to develop ‘Stop In Your Tracks’, a rail safety education program targeted at teenagers, aged 13 to 17. The program will include interactive Forum Theatre performances and a film-based incursion, covering safety and dangers around trains and railways.

During these performances, students engage in facilitated discussions about why young people take risks, before participating in replays of scenarios, examining how external factors like peer pressure influence our choices and behaviours.

Foodbank WA

Arc Infrastructure provides ongoing support to Foodbank WA to deliver benefits to multiple communities in Western Australia’s Wheatbelt region.

During the height of the COVID-19 pandemic, Foodbank WA identified a gap in the services being delivered in the Wheatbelt and saw an opportunity to potentially expand the food and groceries being provided to locals struggling to put food on the table.

Arc kicked off the long-term partnership by funding critical food relief needs assessment research in the Wheatbelt that has provided recommendations on how Foodbank WA can best help those experiencing food insecurity in the area.

Wyalkatchem was selected as the first food provision distribution hub in the trial. Surrounding towns which tapped into the food relief hub included Beacon, Koordan, Cunderdin and Kalannie. Additional support was provided directly to Northam. 

Foodbank WA’s commitment to improving food security includes helping to reduce the negative health impacts of food insecurity by providing nutrition information that helps people better understand their nutritional needs. A portion of the funding provided to the food relief organisation through Arc’s Principal Partnership is also be allocated to nutrition education.

Lifeline WA

Arc Infrastructure is delighted that following a $30,000 Christmas donation to Lifeline WA in December 2020, the business continued support to address the stigma around mental health and help prevent suicide in regional Western Australia. 
  
Each year, Arc's support will fund the training and ongoing support of 12 highly skilled Lifeline WA Telephone Crisis Support Volunteers.

Lifeline WA’s amazing Telephone Crisis Support Volunteers listen to callers without judgment and work with them to explore their options for support. Telephone crisis supporters undergo almost 180 hours of training over 12 months to enable them to answer calls. The training ensures volunteers are qualified to provide people in need of support with a safe space to discuss their needs, worries or concerns.

Type 1 Diabetes Family Centre

Arc Infrastructure is proud to be continuing its support of the Type 1 Diabetes Family Centre, committing $90,000 over the next three years towards the centre and its vital services. 

Arc’s commitment will support the ongoing regional expansion of the Type 1 Diabetes Family Centre in person and online. This includes T1D Empower, a peer mentoring program for teens living with type 1 diabetes and a CONNECT Regional Program, reducing geographic barriers to accessing type 1 diabetes care.

Type 1 diabetes is one of the most complex self-managed conditions, requiring on average more than 180 extra health-related decisions per day for a person or their carer. The Type 1 Diabetes Family Centre was established in 2015 to offer clinical care, and wrap-around social support, ensuring no one has to face the condition alone.

Waalitj Foundation

Arc Infrastructure commenced a new partnership with the Waalitj Foundation (formerly known as the Wirrpanda Foundation) in 2024, totalling $300,000 over three years.

The partnership follows on from a $30,000 contribution Arc made to the Waalitj Foundation as the recipient of the 2022 Christmas donation.

The first year of funding was allocated towards the purchase of a van for the Deadly Sista Girlz location at Halls Head in the South West and sporting equipment, uniforms, program rewards, on-country cultural activities, healthy food options and training for the Waalitj Boys at Clontarf Aboriginal College at Waterford in the Perth Metro area.

Arc provided $100,000 to cover the cost of a full-time Indigenous Employment Mentor in the Kalgoorlie Aboriginal Waalitj Foundation pre-employment program for 2025, which will include the provision of a work vehicle and laptop.

In the final year of the Principal Partnership, Arc will contribute $100,000 to support Aboriginal businesses by funding Waalitj Hub initiatives and services in 2026. The funding will be directed towards running Business Builder events and enabling Waalitj Hub coaches to visit communities to ensure Waalitj Hub services are accessible to those areas beyond the Perth Metro region. 

This includes building business capability through targeted business support services such as risk management and legal support, marketing and communications, tendering and contract execution, pre-qualification and project compliance.

Zonta House Refuge Association Inc

Arc Infrastructure has entered a new Principal Partnership with Zonta House Refuge Association Inc (Zonta House) to support women and children in Zonta House refuges, transitional housing, and those who have moved into their own safe and stable accommodation to escape violence.

Zonta House is located in Perth and operates as a not-for-profit organisation. They have been providing services for over 40 years, and currently operate a suite of 13 programs to help people facing family and domestic violence, abuse and coercive control (FDV) access and navigate the support they need in a coordinated, trauma-informed, and empowering manner.

The funding from Arc’s three-year Principal Partnership with Zonta House comes to a total of $150,000 and will be allocated towards Family Assistance Support and Residence Enrichment Workshops and Activities.

The Zonta House Family Assistance Support program helps to address the specific needs of children and young people impacted by FDV, offering emotional support, ongoing support coordination, and individualised activities aimed at enhancing their wellbeing.

Zonta House Residence Enrichment Workshops and Activities offer a variety of including self-care practices, art therapy, gentle fitness, personal development sessions, skill building, and multicultural experiences. The aim is to create meaningful opportunities that foster physical and mental well-being, cultivate a sense of belonging, and promote personal growth.
