Can you apply online?
Yes, we strongly recommend it. There are many advantages in completing an
application online. The online system can be accessed anytime day or night so you
can choose when it best suits you to apply. You can complete your application in
one session or save it and return at a later time and continue from where you left
off. However, remember that applications must be submitted before 4.30pm on the
closing date of the donation round you are applying to.
Another benefit is that when you are ready to apply again, all the information from
your last application will already be in the new form, saving you a lot of time from
having to re-enter information.
You can access the online system from the home page of our website. There are 3
easy steps to completing the process.
1. Register online
Begin by completing the registration form online. Please enter your organisation
name as your username ID. On receipt of your registration request we will confirm
your username and password and activate your account. Please allow up to 1
business day for this process to be completed and to receive your notification.
2. Eligibility check
Once you have activated your account with us, you can proceed to the “eligibility
wizard”. The wizard will ask you a few questions to help you determine whether or
not you are eligible to apply for a donation and which application form best suits
your needs (single-year or multi-year).
3. Complete application
Work your way through the online application form, answering all questions as
you go. There are lots of helpful tips along the way to ensure that you provide us
with the information we need to assess your application. Once your application is
complete you must submit it online, together with your uploaded attachments.

How much will your organisation get?
Trust Waikato rarely funds the entire sum that organisations request. We prefer to
make a fair contribution and encourage organisations to secure funds from other
sources as well.
