Louisa and Patrick Emmett Murphy

Foundation 2018

The Trust has $140,000 available for funding in 2018. The minimum Grant awarded will be $5,000 and the maximum grant will be $25,000.

The Foundation was established to provide for the benefit of charitable organisations within New Zealand. The Settlor’s intention was to support a range of charitable causes predominantly in the Auckland area (as defined by the Auckland Super City boundaries – broadly from Wellsford to Pukekohe). To be eligible, organisations must benefit people within the Auckland area by:

  • Providing assistance and care for terminally ill people in our community.
  • Improving the quality of life for our older people in our community.
  • Providing assistance and care for people suffering from illness in our community.

General

 

  • Only charitable organisations may apply for grants.
  • Organisations may apply for full or partial funding. Of those who apply for partial funding, preference will be given to those applicants who can show a plan to secure remaining funding.
  • Preference will be given to applications for a “specific project” as opposed to “general” running costs of the organisations.
  • Applications must relate directly to one or more of the three objects described above.
  • The Trust will not accept late applications
