Chinese Poll Tax Heritage Trust funding round now open
Chinese Poll Tax Heritage Trust funding round now open
Members of the public are invited to apply to the current funding round of the Chinese Poll Tax Heritage Trust. Applications close on 26 September 2018.
The Trust distributes up to $150,000 in grants a year, across two funding rounds. Funding supports activities that help preserve Chinese New Zealand history, raise awareness of the contributions of early Chinese settlers, and provide tangible support for Chinese New Zealanders' history, language and culture.
The Trust chairman, Mr Kai Luey, encourages people to submit applications that support the aims of the Trust.
Recent Trust grants have assisted with commissioned works which share the histories of New Zealand's Chinese fruit shops, laundries, churches and merchants, and war refugees.
To apply for funding, or to
