Do we fund capital/building projects?
The Trust considers making contributions towards capital projects but does not
fund entire project costs. It’s important to have other funding partners when
undertaking a major development. Make contact with our Donation Advisors early
on in your planning to discuss the proposal.
What if your organisation receives Government funding?
Trust Waikato won’t fund projects which are government’s responsibility.
The Trust will carefully consider applications from organisations significantly funded
by government, to assess the wider community involvement.
Will the donations budget be the same for each round?
Trust Waikato sets one donation budget for the entire calendar year. We split the
budget evenly between the three rounds with a degree of flexibility. In this sense,
it makes no difference when your group applies. Applications are assessed on
individual merit.
How can your organisation apply?
You will need to complete a single-year or multi-year (2 or 3 year) donation
application and submit it to Trust Waikato. There are 3 funding rounds each year
closing in February, June and September.
We recommend you apply for a donation using our online system, available from
the home page of our website
. For more
