Timaru District Council provides funding to support projects, activities, and events that benefit people across the district and help make Timaru a great place to live.
Funding is available for one‑off events and ongoing projects run by community organisations and not‑for‑profits that provide value to the wider community. These initiatives help bring people together, support local needs, and contribute to the social, cultural, and recreational life of the district.
