Funds raised are primarily for the benefit of Racing in New Zealand, although our Authorised Purpose does allow us to make donations for charitable and/or sporting purposes

If you are from a group that is considering applying, this website should provide you with all the information you need to know about making an application. In particular, please read the funding criteria information contained in the Applications section of the website prior to completing an application form.

Applications must be received 5 working days prior to Trust meetings, which are generally held once each month. Upcoming meeting dates are posted on the right-side bar of the website. Decision letters are sent out within 5 days of the meeting.

As the Trustees cannot consider retrospective applications (ie, claims for expenditure that has already been paid), please ensure that you submit your application well in advance of when you require the funds.

Please do not hesitate to contact the Trust office if you have any queries.
