The next round of the Waste Minimisation and Innovation Fund (WMIF) is now open until Sunday 30th September 2018
A wide variety of waste minimisation initiatives have been supported under the WMIF since 2013, with approximately $3.3 million being allocated to over 350 projects so far.
If you are from a business, community group, a Māori group or an educational organisation with a great idea for a project, activity or event that supports waste minimisation in Auckland then we would love to hear from you!
Funding criteria, application guidelines and information about previously approved grants can be found here on the Auckland Council website. Applications must be made online via SmartyGrants, and a link through to the application portal will be accessible via the WMIF webpage once the funding round opens.
Funding workshops are available upon request should any organisations or communities within Auckland have interest in receiving in-depth information on the application and assessment process. Support and guidance is also available to applicants and grant recipients by phone, email, and face-to-face engagement should it be required.
The September round will accept applications requesting grants of up to $50,000.
