Applying for funding

Our strategy for 2010 - 2014 is to focus all that we do as a Trust, including our grant making, on working towards a more socially just and inclusive Aotearoa New Zealand.

Within this, our main focus areas are Māori Development and Disadvantaged Children and their Families.

Applications with a focus on other especially marginalised groups may also be considered.

If you're interested in applying for funding, we strongly suggest you do all of the following:

• Check whether your goals and our goals match
• Read about organisations we have supported recently
• Have a look at the list of things we don't usually fund
• Read about our process and timelines
• And only then Apply on line

If you're still not clear whether you fit our criteria or focus, we'd love to talk to you.  Give us a call on (04) 472 8876.

The Deaf Development Fund and the J R McKenzie Youth Education Fund are separate funds, click on the links to find out more about them.
