Sea Swift’s philosophy has always been to play an active role in the communities where we operate.

Sea Swift, as a provider of shipping services to Northern Australian communities, is proud to work in the region and to support these communities through events and initiatives that improve quality of life, economic development and the continuity of remote arts and cultural rituals.

We are a strong corporate citizen and provide support to the communities we service, supporting:

  • arts and cultural events
  • environmental conservation
  • community wellbeing
  • local enterprise
  • community events.

Each year, Sea Swift receives a large number of sponsorship and freight assistance applications from very worthy applicants across our communities.

SEA SWIFT SPONSORSHIP

The sponsorship application period for this Financial Year (2024/2025) has now closed. Applications will be accepted again on 1 July 2025.

If you are interested in applying next year, please review our freight assistance and sponsorship criteria.

NOTE: Due to the amount of applications per year, we are not always able to support all applications, but we are thankful for all applicants that consider partnering with Sea Swift.

We look forward to supporting the local communities in which we work and celebrating remote and First Nations communities in Northern Australia through our sponsorship program.
