Community Grants will be considered twice a year. SkyCity Hamilton Community Trust will consider grants spanning for up to three years, with clear conditions on reporting. The size of grants will depend on the funding available.

We will work alongside the Waikato funders group to ensure we know where the greatest needs are for leverage and partnering for impact. We want to build trusted partnerships to get the support to where it is most needed.

We welcome the opportunity to partner with funders and with community.

Organisations must have charitable status to apply for a Community Grant. Organisations registered with Charities Services have charitable status.

How do I apply?

Applications will be received through our SmartyGrants portal here

How much can I apply for?

There is no maximum grant available. We will be asking for a budget and for your annual accounts to help us clarify your request.

How often can I apply?

We will only approve one grant, per organisation, per financial year (1 July to 30 June). Before submitting a new funding application, please ensure that any required reports from previous grants have been completed.
