Receiving a Grant

"The NZ Nutrition Foundation is grateful for TSCF funding and hopes to be able to organise more Just Cook programmes in the region."

Top of the South Community Foundation grants are made possible through the generosity of our donors. Each year we offer funding to support the organisations having the greatest impact across our region, aligned to the causes our donors love.

TSCF is growing, so this year we are running smaller grant rounds rather than the one large grant round we have run in the past. You can find out which grant rounds are open on this page.

To find details of the funding in each grant round, click on the “Grant Criteria’ button.
