Community Funding

Kiwi release with Oxborrow family

WWF supports New Zealand communities and schools conservation projects through two funds - the Habitat Protection Fund and the Environmental Education Action Fund.


The Habitat Protection Fund grants funding to not-for-profit community conservation groups in New Zealand doing hands-on ecological restoration or conservation. WWF-New Zealand established the Habitat Protection Fund in 2000 in partnership with The Tindall Foundation, and since launch has partnered with volunteer groups on over 400 projects to protect areas of high conservation significance in their communities.

 

The Environmental Education Action Fund supports and promotes environmental education through action for schools and communities across New Zealand. This fund is also run in partnership with the Tindall Foundation.

To find out if your group is eligible for funding, please click the links on the left.
