Rātā Foundation is the South Island’s largest philanthropic funder. Each year we grant around $20 million to invest in community organisations in Canterbury, Marlborough, Nelson and the Chatham Islands. As well as supporting community organisations through funding, we aim to be a community leader and influencer, so we partner and collaborate with people and organisations that have strong community connections and understanding. Together with them we work to empower people to thrive through innovative funding and smart investment that brings about sustainable, intergenerational change which strives to create an equitable and sustainable society.

With a vision to enhance lives, Foundation North holds in trust for the communities of Auckland and Northland an endowment, or pūtea, of around two billion dollars. This comes from the sale of the community’s shares in what was previously the Auckland Savings Bank. That perpetual endowment allows it to make around $50-60 million in grants each year to not-for-profit groups and community initiatives in Auckland and Northland. Since it was founded as the community trust for Auckland and Northland in 1988, the Foundation has returned over $1.4 billion dollars in grants to the region.

Established in 1998, NZCT is one of New Zealand's largest gaming trusts with 13% of market share. We are proud of the contribution we make to local communities, particularly in the area of amateur sport and active participation. We couldn't do what we do without the help of our hard-working gaming room operators. In 23/24, NZCT awarded over $40 million in grants for a wide range of community services, including sports, rescue services, youth development, the Arts, and cultural activities.More on NZCT’s grants programme, harm prevention approach, and partnership with hospitality venues throughout New Zealand.
