What better reason is there? Generosity begins at home, and for so many of us Hawke’s Bay is just that, home. Live Here Give Here.
That’s what it’s all about.
Unless you specify otherwise, your giving will stay right here in Hawke’s Bay and be felt locally by generations to come. Our administration costs will never exceed more than 1% of our fund value, so you can be assured that your gift is directly benefiting those that need it the most.
Your gift will be safeguarded for the long term and only the income it creates will be given out to the community. This means that in 10, 50 or 100 years time, your gift will still be generating income to support the community of Hawke’s Bay.
Through one gift, you can support multiple causes all of which directly benefit Hawke’s Bay. 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.
Have you ever given money wondering what it will actually be used for and whether it will make any real difference? The power of Hawke’s Bay Foundation is that it pools our charitable giving together to create real scale and then places those funds where they will have the greatest possible impact.
With reputable, skilled and experienced trustees, a trust deed that provides for appointment of trustees by key community leaders and robust granting and investment policies, your gift is in safe hands.
