Tū Manawa Active Aotearoa Fund
The purpose of Tū Manawa Active Aotearoa is to provide quality opportunities that are accessible and create a life-long love of being active.
We welcome applications from a wide range of organisations that provide play, active recreation and sport opportunities for tamariki and rangatahi, particularly for those that are less active. These groups include:
- Tamariki (5-11) and rangatahi (12-18) in higher deprivation communities
- Girls and young women (5-24); and
- Disabled children and young people (5-18)
- Maaori tamariki and rangatahi
