“My aspiration is that rangatahi are encouraged to take positive action into their own hands when it comes to developing their communities”

Name

TiraRangatahi are looking for rangatahi who need pūtea to run projects in their community.

The Rangatahi-led fund is open for applications most of the year (we stop over December/ January only).

  • Project ideas need to come from and be led by rangatahi aged between 12– 24 years.
  • Groups of rangatahi can apply for up to $5,000.
  • There is no closing date!

Who can apply?

You / your rōpū must be aged 12-24 years old and live in the ECCT rohe. Check out this map to see if you are in the region.    You / your rōpū must be one or more of the following:

  • Rangatahi Māori
  • Pasifika youth
  • Rangatahi with disabilities
  • Rainbow youth
  • Rangatahi in communities experiencing hardship/disadvantage.

What kind of project could get funded?

We are pretty open to what could be funded. Your project could be an event or a longer project. It can be something you are doing for other rangatahi or something aimed at your community.
Your project can be as long or as short as you would like it to be.
All projects need to be completed by December 2022.

How do I apply?  It is super easy; you just need to tell us a little about you and your project via the online form.
