Community groups are set to benefit as Auckland Council loosens the purse strings.
The latest round of grants will back projects focused on everything from climate resilience and environmental restoration to sport and cultural events, council’s Community Committee Chair, Julie Fairey says.
“Across Auckland we’re seeing communities step up with energy, creativity and commitment.
“These grants support the people really doing the mahi, whether that’s preparing neighbourhoods for emergencies, restoring local ecosystems, helping tamariki get active, or creating events that bring communities together.”
Approved through the Long-Term Plan process in 2024, the grants are intended to strengthen Auckland communities, Fairey adds.
“The council’s role is to help unlock that potential. When we invest in communities, we invest in a stronger, more connected and resilient Auckland.”
