Quake-hit Christchurch community and sports groups are the big winners in the latest round of earthquake appeal cash announced today.
Almost $100million has been pledged to the Christchurch Earthquake Appeal Trust since it was set up in the wake of the killer February 22, 2011 shake.
It has already handed out millions to worthy causes, and today it announced the latest winners.
The second round of the Vodafone Foundation Canterbury Fund - a joint initiative between the Vodafone Foundation and the trust - has revealed that up to $4m in funding is available for community groups to apply for.
The fund awards grants from $5000 to $50,000 to grassroots organisations, with an emphasis on youth-focused projects and capital or infrastructure projects.
