Mātātuhi Foundation 2020 Literary Funding Grants
Request for Expressions of Interest
The Mātātuhi Foundation wants to help increase NZ writers’ reach and engagement with NZ readers by supporting innovative projects with seed funding of up to $5,000.
Our next funding round closes on 31 May 2020.
Submit your expression of interest online at www.matatuhifoundation.co.nz
The Foundation will seed fund projects that:
- Relate to New Zealand literature (fiction, non-fiction, poetry)
- Demonstrate innovation
- Deliver broad community benefit outcomes
- Use innovative and cost-effective platforms including digital
- Are new or business expansion projects rather than business-as-usual projects
- Represent well-considered, robust propositions with identified, achievable and measurable deliverables
The Foundation will generally NOT fund:
- Business-as-usual activities or costs such as ongoing operational or staff overheads
- Ancillary project costs including catering expenses or international travel
- Projects that can access full funding elsewhere
- The writing or publishing of individual titles unless there is deemed to be a significant community benefit
