Apply for Funding

If you are applying to TECT for the first time or applying for something different than what you've been funded for before, we recommend you contact our office to discuss your project before completing the application form. We also ask that if you are applying for event or facility funding that you also contact our office before applying.

Please ensure applications are submitted at least 3 months prior to when you require a decision. Our team are always happy to discuss your application with you and to offer guidance and advice.

All applications must be submitted through our online system, SmartyGrants. This system allows you to easily complete and submit your funding application for the Community Development and Community Facilities funds online, with questions tailored to the fund you are applying for, so you will only be prompted to fill out information that is absolutely necessary. Better yet, the application doesn’t have to be completed all in one go; you are able to save a draft and come back to it later.

If you do not already have a SmartyGrants account, you will be prompted to make one before beginning your application. Click 'Apply Here' to get started.

Please give us a call on 07 578 5094 or email us at info@tect.org.nz.
