Academic Grants

Academic grants are provided by the Cerebral Palsy Society of New Zealand to enable members to participate in adult educational opportunities. These grants are available for members undertaking study at Diploma level or above, with a maximum value of up to $3,000. The grant can be used for course fees, student association fees, travel to and from university, and textbooks/course materials. Applications can be made at any time during the year and are reviewed monthly by the Grants Committee. The grants are also open to family members of Society members who are undertaking relevant research related to cerebral palsy. Recipients must be current financial members of the Cerebral Palsy Society and hold New Zealand citizenship or permanent residency.
