Wiri Community Impact Fund
For Our People. For Our Place.
The Wiri Community Impact Fund provides monthly donations up to the value of $500 to local community organisations. This support comes from the operational profit of our flagship hospitality venue Woodside, so dining with us helps us to help you.
The money you receive can be used for operational costs, new initiatives, or events supporting our community.
To apply, simply complete our online application form below and tell us a bit about your organisation and how the funds would be used. Applications are open year-round and reviewed monthly.
Wiri Licensing Trust reserves the right to determine the number and value of donations granted each month. This may vary based on available funds and applications received.
Applicants will be notified of the outcome within 7 days of the last day of the month.
Let’s do good together — for our people, and our place.
