Helping to provide food relief for those in need

During the 2024/25 year – and in light of the ongoing cost of living crisis – the Foundation made special emergency grants of $100,000 each to social service providers working with kaumātua and families experiencing food insecurity, as part of its Social Impact and Mission outreach.

Pictured at the grant presentation to Kaikohe-based Te Hau Ora Ō Ngāpuhi are Selwyn’s Kaihautu Matua General Manager Anthony Wilson (2nd left) and Board member, The Right Reverend Te Kītohi Pikaahu, with Te Hau Ora CEO Tia Ashby and her team.

A similar grant was made to Te Tāpui Atawhai | Auckland City Mission to help in providing food parcels for people in need.
