Keeping it local
From Huia to Whenuapai and everywhere in between, The Trusts are all about keeping things local in our communities.
Thatâs why our surplus profits go right back into local schools, community groups, businesses, and people who are dedicated to helping our place thrive.
Owned by the community. Run by the community. For the community.
Our Funds
There are five avenues for support from The Trusts.
Our Support and Innovation Funds help local community organisations handle major projects, cover operational costs and foster new initiatives.
For a little extra helping hand throughout the year our smaller Supporter’s Club and Community Donations provide a boost to local projects while our Sponsorships bring extra funds to businesses working to enhance The West.
If you need help to bring about positive change in our community find out how we can support you or get in touch!

Matariki at Visionwest Community Trust was something else this year.
Three days of shared kai, cultural learning and community celebration in Glen Eden, reaching 338 families across The West. That's 647 tamariki and 81 seniors who went home with kai kits and winter warmer packs. Every child picked out a brand new pair of pyjamas. Every family got a blanket.
Around 60 volunteers including a crew from The Trusts helped move more than 5 tonnes of fresh produce. Local schools rallied hard, with Kaurilands School alone donating over 400 boxes of cereal.
"We had whÄnau in tears as they were overwhelmed with the kai kits and the winter warmers," the Visionwest team shared.
Supported through the 2026 Your West Support Fund.
