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!

RiverCare Group Te Wai o Pareira recently took the time to celebrate and thank the incredible volunteers who give their time, energy, and passion to caring for our local waterways with a picnic lunch.

Rivercare uses hands-on activities such as planting, monitoring, and education to ensure our rivers remain healthy for future generations. With this mahi they are restoring riverbanks, improving water quality, protecting native biodiversity, and building awareness of the value of healthy waterways. 

We are pleased to be a sponsor Rivercare and were delighted to contribute to the summer picnic by donating the free loan of our gazebos, providing shelter and a comfortable space for everyone to enjoy the day together.
