Check out our brand new youth-fund
To the next generation of change-makers, dreamers and community superstars: here's your chance to get started! Would you like to do a project that helps your community and makes the world a better place? What if we provided the money and a bit of guidance? For the first time ever we've opened a new youth-fund to help people aged 12-20 run their own awesome initiatives.
👉 www.wdc.govt.nz...
Types of eligible initiatives could be workshops, events, seminars, research and surveys, awareness campaigns, community activities, resources for sectors of the community, and more. Eligible initiatives are those that address a need and provide benefit to the Whangārei community. We are unable to support initiatives that provide private benefit to a small group or to individuals. Think about an idea that benefits lots of people, or people who really need it, and apply!
