The Working Together More
Fund (WTMF) is seeking applications to fund New Zealand community organisations
to work together in order to make a greater difference for the people and
communities they serve.
WTMF grants cannot be used to support
existing operational expenses. Grants are to support additional costs you may
incur in developing new or improving existing collaborations, and/or mergers of
two or more organisations. This could include meeting or facilitation costs to
bring groups together to kick start a collaboration in its early formation.
Funding
Information
·
Grants generally range between $1,000 and
$30,000
- If
you are applying for funds towards a larger scale project, the committee
will need to see from where supplementary funds are being sourced.
Criteria
To
be eligible, applications need to meet the following criteria. Please note
funds are generally not granted for ongoing operational costs – unless it would
significantly add collaborative value to your work.
- The
lead applicant must be a non-profit legal entity registered with the
Charities Service or as an Incorporated Society
- At
least one other non-profit partner organisation or group is, or will be,
involved in the initiative
- Participants
are able to demonstrate how they will accomplish high-quality
collaboration
- The
collaborative initiative or merger will result in identifiable benefits to
participating organisations or groups and the communities they serve
- Grants
will not be approved for political organisations, groups involved in
promoting religion, overseas-based groups, initiatives delivered to
overseas communities, or for overseas travel.
WTMF
will not support events or conferences – unless their focus is ongoing
collaboration and a strong likelihood exists that a significant increase in
ongoing collaboration will result.
