Seed Fund
Funding support for Nature Kakis
Nature Kakis Network Seed Fund
The Nature Kakis Network Seed Fund supports the development of the network, training of Nature Kakis to self-organise activities, and organising of recurring Nature Kakis activities.
The Nature Kakis initiative is made possible through generous donations to the Garden City Fund, a registered charity and IPC established by NParks, to facilitate community and capacity-building projects to help fulfil Singapore’s City in Nature vision.
Eligibility
To apply, the Chapter must be an established Nature Kakis Chapter that has received appointment letters from the National Parks Board (NParks).
Interested Chapters are encouraged to apply for the Seed Fund early, as it operates on a first-come, first-served basis, subject to the availability of funds.
Fund Details
The Seed Fund provides funding of up to $5,000* per Nature Kakis Chapter, with full reimbursement of fundable items made to the respective Citizens’ Consultative Committee (CCC) supporting each Chapter.
The use of funds for projects will be assessed based on the project’s merits and ability to contribute towards the Nature Kakis Network and Chapter's growth.
To apply, refer to the infographics below on fundable items* and engage your Chapter's NParks Community Partnerships (Engagement) manager to arrange a consultation. Please note that Goods and Service Tax (GST) is not fundable.
*Established Chapters also receive a publicity starter kit to support outreach efforts in their communities (inclusive of one pull-up banner, one A4 poster with board backing, and collar pins for Chapter members). Beyond this starter kit, Chapters may apply for funding support to produce additional publicity collaterals (i.e. item 1b in infographic).
