Our Outcomes
The vision for the SkyCity Auckland Community Trust is:
“Communities engaged and connected, enabling communities to thrive”
We want our funding to support services and programmes that focus on "Te piko o te māhuri, tērā te tupu o te rākau - The way in which the young sapling is nurtured, determines how the tree will grow".
Funding will be approved for projects that demonstrate the delivery of the following outcomes:
- Strengthening cultural diversity, social connection, a greater sense of belonging and inclusion.
- Building knowledge and skills.
- Influencing behaviours and attitudes.
(For the purposes of the SkyCity Auckland Community Trust funding strategy, Rangatahi has been defined as those who are no longer in school through to the age of 34).
Organisations who support rangatahi in any of these outcomes are encouraged to apply. The focus remains on enabling community wellbeing and innovation and we encourage collaboration and partnerships for broader impact. We encourage funding requests for projects that are strengths-based in nature.

Our funding priorities
We will consider applications that support rangatahi in the following ways:
- Rangatahi at the centre
- Rangatahi leading their own solutions and influence decision making
- Rangatahi led initiatives which benefit them directly, their wider whānau and/or community
