Gaming Trusts

 

Gaming trusts give grants of ~$300 million per year to sporting, educational, health, and arts groups and other charities.

See our essential reading below on the application process plus useful tips.

TIP: When applying to Trusts state you are asking them to INVEST with your organisation and develop a partnership!!! We tend to talk about grants and donations - a more professional approach is to talk of investment and returns to the community and your club or sport.

 

The Department of Internal Affairs (DIA) has regular updates on the industry.
