Community Funding opportunity


Covid-19 Community Wellbeing Fund

13 November 2020

A new $40 million lottery fund has been established to focus on community and social initiatives in the wake of COVID-19.  The fund opened on 28 October 2020.

Lottery COVID-19 Community Wellbeing Fund provides one-off grants for community or social initiatives that increase the strength and resilience of communities that are responding to the impacts of COVID-19.

This Fund supports hapū, iwi and community organisations that have lost funding or have an increased demand on their services due to the COVID-19 pandemic, and community or social initiatives that strengthen community resilience and respond to the impacts of COVID-19.
