Services for Young People Fund

We provide funding for community-based services for young people aged 12-24 in New Zealand. These services provide young people with opportunities to connect with their community, gain confidence and learn new skills.

Services for Young People

We contribute funding to a number of national programmes including Duke of Edinburgh's Hillary Award, Scouts New Zealand, Stage Challenge, Spirit of Adventure TrustYoung Enterprise Scheme and Outlook for Someday.

We also fund community based services who respond to a need in their community and link with other youth services, to maximise opportunities for young people.
