Betty Campbell Accommodation Assistance Grants are for not-for-profit community groups seeking to promote social wellbeing for Wellington residents in Wellington City.
Value
Grants are allocated twice a year, subject to available funds. The maximum subsidy is limited to 30% of rental, up to $10,000.
Purpose
To provide contestable cash grants for rental subsidy for not-for-profit groups seeking to promote social wellbeing for Wellington residents.
Criteria
The Council seeks to work with community groups that:
- provide direct services to promote social wellbeing for Wellington residents (Social wellbeing means living in a supportive, ongoing community and having access to shelter, education, food and income.)
- contribute to building community capability and/or capacity for promoting social wellbeing for Wellington residents by providing coordination and support for other groups. Supporting other groups might entail providing training opportunities, support services, or guidance to other groups.
- are located within Wellington city and surrounding suburbs and whose services are accessible to all Wellingtonians.
Accommodations assistance grants:
- will generally be allocated for periods of three years at a time, but may be made for shorter periods where this is more appropriate
- may be made for reduced amounts in subsequent years as community groups gain independence from the Fund
- will be made mindful of other policies such as having wheelchair access
- may be made to community groups submitting joint proposals, or proposals where a sharing of resources or space are indicated
- will only be made to groups, or clusters of groups, requiring accommodation for 30 or more hours per week.
