Community Foundation
With Top of the South Foundation your charitable giving makes a real, positive difference that will be felt throughout our region for generations to come.

We work with a range of inspiring local organisations that enables you to support causes that are dear to your heart.

Keeping it local

Our regional focus and local expertise means your gift supports your community.  Choose to support the local charitable causes, projects and initiatives you are passionate about.

Keeping it simple

Through one gift, you can support multiple causes all of which directly benefit Te Tauihu. You can direct your giving to areas you care about, or you can leave it in the hands of the Foundation’s trustees to put the funds to work where they believe it will do the most good.

Keeping your gift safe forever

We invest and grow your gift through our partnership with Craigs Investment Partners www.craigsip.com, and safeguard it for generations.

Check out the excellent Community Foundations of NZ CFNZ Fund Calculator and you can see for yourself how your fund will grow over time.
