How to apply for a grant
Our tip
Start early to give yourself time to consider and complete all questions and have all the necessary documents available.
If you have limited computer access, you can book a computer or librarian for one hour in one of Auckland's libraries. Library staff can also help you fill out the form.
You will need to take all the required documents saved on a memory stick with you so that you can upload these and include them in your application form.
Remember to save the application form. The form will also auto save each time you move to a new page of the application form.
Depending on your answers to certain questions, some sections of the application form may be 'greyed out' and you won't be able to type in any answers.
Disclosure of interest
In the application form, we will ask you to disclose if a councillor or local board member, our employee or their immediate family has any interest or involvement in the project or activity you are planning to ask for funding for.
A councillor or local board member involved can be present at a meeting where the project or activity is considered; however, they may not take part in the decision process.
