"These could be about promoting good choices about health and wellbeing, or helping young people to develop the skills and attitudes to take part in our community in a positive way.
"We are also looking for applications from organisations which promote relevant information to young people so they can make good decisions and participate in our society at every level."
Last year the committee awarded $10,000 in grants to local groups.
Organisations can apply for up to $1500. There are four application rounds a year and the next round closes on Friday. For more information go to whanganui.govt.nz/youthcommitttee.
