Communities Fund
The Communities Fund supports projects and initiatives that promote community wellbeing and sustainable economic development in Tairāwhiti. It is open to not-for-profit groups, registered charities and organisations delivering projects that will benefit our beneficiaries, the people of Tairāwhiti. All applications are assessed against the Trust’s wellbeing framework, He Rangitapu He Tohu Ora to ensure they will lead to meaningful outcomes for our communities.
To be successful, you’ll be able to describe the intended outcomes, local benefits and community involvement.
Before applying, ensure you thoroughly read the guidelines.
Due to high demand from the Communities Fund, this year's remaining funding pool is limited. While we will still consider applications, future distributions will be constrained until 5 February 2026. See FAQ: Why has the Community Funding been limited?
