Hawthorn Football Club will receive $20 million in federal government funding for their new Dingley facility if Labor is elected on May 18.

The Hawks and Labor frontbenchers Anthony Albanese and Mark Dreyfus made the funding pledge on Wednesday at Hawthorn's Dingley site, the Kennedy Community Centre.

The Hawks are seeking to raise well over $100 million for the huge Dingley site, which will become their new training base, replacing Waverley Park.

In announcing the funding, Albanese said it was based on community use, gender equal facilities and education spaces. It would provide a "regional home" for non-profit groups.
