Before you begin

Welcome to the Auckland Council's online grant application service, powered by SmartyGrants.

The Manurewa area has one of the highest proportions of young people under the age of 24 in Auckland. 

  • The Manurewa Local Board will award scholarships of up to $2000 to young people, aged 14- 24, who have shown leadership potential or have contributed meaningful leadership or volunteer activities during the past year. This is to assist them to move into further education, training or attend events that will develop their leadership potential. 

    This will help to achieve educational aspirations identified in the local board plan and grow young leaders in the community.

Applications close at 5pm on Monday 11 December 2017. Late applications will not be accepted.
