Funding.

Resourcing. Empowering. Sustaining.

Our funding programme exists to support projects that make a tangible difference where it’s needed most — in communities facing hardship, crisis, or on the long road of recovery.

Unsure where to start?

Here's how we can help.

GC Aid provides funds towards the holistic development and transformation of communities and individuals within and outside New Zealand.  This includes all or any of the following:

  • Relief of suffering

  • Disaster relief

  • Economic aid

GC Aid works in conjunction with aid workers and Governmental and non-Governmental agencies within New Zealand and overseas.

If funding is required within New Zealand,
we recommend the following:

Seek Government Funding.

The Department of Internal Affairs' Community Matters website has information on applying for Lottery Grants Board or Community Organisation Grants Scheme (COGS) grants and various community funding schemes. 

Check with your local council about funders in your area. You can find your local council's details through Local Government in New Zealand.

Seek Local Funding.

Many regions offer community-based grants, trusts, and local initiatives that support projects focused on social impact, development, and transformation.

A simple online search or visit to community funding directories can reveal options from councils, service clubs, and charitable organisations.
