Life Education Trust has partnered with Strategic Grants to provide the local regional Trust's with free access to the GEM Local grants database. GEM Local aims to help build your capacity and increase your access to funding opportunities, grant preparation tools and training.
What are the benefits of GEM Local?
GEM Local is a grants database designed specifically to help New Zealand community organisations and small non-profits find the right grants for them.
This easy-to-use tool provides:
- An always current customised grants calendar finding JUST the grants relevant to your organisation, according to what you do, where you do it and your legal status
- Full access to all New Zealand grant and funder records in your personalised Grants Calendar, including trusts and foundations, corporate and community foundations, local council, government grants, gaming trusts and lottery grants
- Ability to track progress of your applications including when funder reports are due
- Additional email alerts on deadlines
- Cloud-based software accessible from anywhere
- Practical tip sheets, training videos and writing samples
Free access is initially provided for 12 months from July 2025, and renewal is dependent on Life Education Trust's continued support for the GEM Local programme.
