2024/25 Waipapa Papanui-Innes-Central Youth Development Fund

• Age groups 12 to 21 years, however, a youth in Year 7 or 8 will be eligible in a group application for consideration whether or not they are yet 12 years of age but live in the Papanui-Innes-Central wards.
• Projects must have obvious benefits for the young person and if possible the wider community.
• Individual applicants can receive a maximum of three Youth Development Grants, with a limit of one grant per financial year (July to June). Further applications may be accepted in exceptional circumstances.
• Applicants should be undertaking other fundraising activities and not relying solely on Community Board support.
• Successful applicants will be required to report back on their experiences and benefits to the Community Board.
• Retrospective applications will not be considered.

If you are part of a larger group (e.g. sports team, scout group, orchestra, etc) and other members of the group may be applying to the Youth Development Fund for the same event, you will need to apply to each of the Community Board areas where the young people reside.  If you are unsure which Board(s) to apply to, please contact Katie MacDonald - katie.macdonald@ccc.govt.nz or 941-5325.

Please note: The group/team/school must have a bank account in their name. We cannot pay any approved funding for a group into a personal/private account. For example, if you are a sports team and do not have your own account, we would pay into your Club’s account.
