Form in hand, waiting on the next round (7)

We hold every question these funders ask, but their round is shut right now. We will not sell you an application you cannot submit. Tell us which one you want and we will start the moment it opens.

Opens 8 Sep 2026

Auckland Council Waterway Protection Fund

Auckland Council

Grants
Up to 50% of project cost
Questions we hold
69

Form transcribed and ready. Next round opens 8 Sep 2026.

The form is fully transcribed and verified, but Round Two does not OPEN until 8 September 2026 — two days away. This card becomes sellable on its own the moment that date passes; the shopfront computes it from the round's opens date, so no manual change is needed.

Community Organisation Grants Scheme (COGS)

Department of Internal Affairs (Hapai Hapori)

Grants
About $3,000 typical, up to ~$20,000
Questions we hold
15

Form transcribed and ready. The funder has not published the next round yet.

The 2026 round closed 13 May. The funder has not published 2027 dates, and COGS runs one round a year, so there is nothing to submit into right now.

Creative Communities Scheme

Creative New Zealand, delivered in partnership with every city and district council in New Zealand (in Auckland, by Auckland Council)

Grants
Most grants under $5,000
Questions we hold
36

Form transcribed and ready. Next round opens 1 Oct 2026.

Two honest reasons. (1) The AUCKLAND round is shut — it reopens 1 October 2026 and closes 14 February 2027, and Auckland is where our clients are. (2) The 36 questions were transcribed from TASMAN District Council's Creative Communities form, not Auckland's. CCS is a national Creative NZ scheme administered separately by every territorial authority, so the criteria are shared but the form is not guaranteed identical. UNBLOCK: on 1 October, pull Auckland Council's own CCS round preview from SmartyGrants using the same download-preview pattern, and replace the question set.

Questions we hold
14

Form transcribed and ready. The funder has not published the next round yet.

The funder's own page says "This fund is closed to new applications". Lottery Community Facilities no longer exists as its own stream — since the May 2026 restructure it is one of four application types inside the single Lottery Fund. Order the Lottery Fund card instead.

Milestone Foundation Grant

Milestone Foundation Limited

Grants
Not published by the funder
Questions we hold
56

Form transcribed and ready. The funder has not published the next round yet.

The 56 questions come from a legacy 2021 application-form PDF that the funder no longer links from any of its own pages, and six of them were traced to a second, undeclared source. The round is open, but the question set has to be re-captured from inside the live COMS portal before we sell against it.

One Foundation Grant

One Foundation Limited (formerly First Sovereign Trust)

Grants
Most grants $2,000 to $30,000
Questions we hold
88

Form transcribed and ready. The funder has not published the next round yet.

The funder's own portal says it cannot take applications right now. Verbatim from onefoundation1.microsoftcrmportals.com on 2026-09-06: "The Grant Portal is offline right now while we build a brand-new version... the all-new portal launches 31th August 2026. The closing date for grant applications for September 2026 NPC has been extended to 17th September 2026." That launch date has passed, the replacement app at grantportal.onefoundation.nz serves only an empty Flutter shell to a plain fetch, and onefoundation.nz/grants still displays a cut-off banner dated March 2020. The 88 questions are genuine — 35 of 35 spot-checks matched verbatim in the funder's own new-portal bundle at grantportal.onefoundation.nz/main.dart.js — so this card is finished except for one fact. UNBLOCK: open grantportal.onefoundation.nz in a real browser, or phone One Foundation, and confirm applications are actually being accepted.

Grants
$12,000 to $50,000
Questions we hold
49

Form transcribed and ready. Next round opens 1 Mar 2027.

Local Fund Round Two does not open until 1 March 2027. The Auckland-wide Regional window (1-30 September 2026) is published but Aktive's own page still calls it closed, so it is not safe to sell against.
