Community funding

Assistance for community groups, sports teams, events and those in financial distress.

We’re switching to the SmartyGrants platform in early 2025. All you’ll need to do is set up a new log-in. In order to get ready for the next funding round set up your login on our SmartyGrants page(external link). This will also list rounds currently open in the new system.

The application process won’t change but you may want to allow some extra time to familiarise yourself with SmartyGrants when you do your first application.

We’re here to help, so contact us at communitygrants@ccc.govt.nz if you need support.
