KiwiSport

Why Apply

Harbour Sport manages the KiwiSport fund on behalf of the North Harbour community and breaks the contestable funding down into two main streams:

• Local Community Fund (Projects up to $30,000 per annum)

• FastFund (Projects up to $3,000)

If you are a school, sports club, RSO, NSO, community provider or other eligible organisation, you may be able to apply for either of these funds to help make sport happen in your community. Download the KiwiSport Quick Guide

KiwiSport in Auckland

The 2015-18 KiwiSport investment plan for Auckland is a single Auckland Plan covering both regional and local KiwiSport investment processes.

Upon consultation with our community, an Auckland wide KiwiSport investment plan has been developed.  This aligns the processes, timings and the names of the funds across Auckland, to make it easier for organisations to seek funding for projects aimed at school-aged children and designed to meet desired KiwiSport outcomes
