Our funding makes the biggest difference to people who face barriers to everyday things. We work to support those who need it most and who need it now. At the same time, we aim to help build a better future where our communities are empowered to thrive and take steps to protect our environment and build resilience against the impacts of climate change. 

If you are familiar with our funding priorities and you have read the relevant information in our Before You Apply and How to Apply sections, you’re ready to start the application process.  

Make sure you have registered to use the portal and remember - a registration is linked to a person and not an organisation. 

Before you submit your application:

• Check you have completed your application questions fully.
• Have you identified the people you will be working with?
• Have you told us about the difference your project will make?
• Have you included all the required supporting documents? (Contact us if you’re not sure which supporting documents to send).
• Create and keep copies of any documents you send as we may ask questions about these.
• Lastly, keep it simple and don’t worry about formatting your answers – we are more interested in how you are supporting communities than how your application looks.
   

Ngā mihi – we look forward to receiving your application.
