Since launching in 2014, Sunrise Foundation has granted over $1,800,000 to groups across the arts, animal welfare, education, environment, health, social services/community, and sports sectors with almost all of that distributed throughout Gisborne-Tairà„whiti.
In Sunrise's 2024 annual funding round, over $525,000 worth of grants were distributed to worthy causes, becoming our largest funding round to-date.
The annual funding round for 2024 is now closed. Applications for 2025 will open early June, 2025.
