What We Fund

Ngā Utunga

Our grants support a wide range of projects, programmes, facilities, services and events across our three pou (pillars.) 

Strong Foundations

Enabling the conditions for our communities to thrive. 


People & Places
Toitū Te Tangata, Toitū Te Whenua

Supporting people and places which enhance communities so that all people can lead fulfilling lives.


Sustainability & Climate

Toitūtanga me te Āhuarangi

Supporting communities to connect to their environment so that it can thrive for future generations.

Within these three pou (pillars) we have specific priorities we want our funding to support, and your application will be stronger if you can meet some of these. 

Please see Our Strategic Aspiration for details on our priorities in each pou.
