Keeping it local
From Huia to Whenuapai and everywhere in between, The Trusts are all about keeping things local in our communities.
That’s 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!

For many rangatahi in The West, getting a driver's licence feels out of reach but Silver Fern Motorsport Charitable Trust is changing that. They provide free driving lessons, test support, and qualified instructors to help young people gain their learner, restricted, and full licences.
Supported by the Your West Support Fund, this mahi is removing financial barriers that hold back rangatahi and giving them the freedom and independence that comes with being on the road

What a brilliant day for The West!
Over 2000 tamariki and their whānau dropped into the Kids Arts Festival at Corban Estate Arts Centre in Henderson for a day packed with over a dozen creative and fun workshops and activities.
The volunteers, tutors and assistants who made it all happen were kept fuelled by Greenfields Bar through our Supporters Club.
