Our Impact
Our Impact
In the five years since the Wakatipu Community Foundation started we have worked together with the community to grow philanthropy. Through our key initiatives such as The Greatest Needs Fund, Scholarships, Impact100 and Generation Give we have been able to grant funds back to the community to strengthen local charities. We are proud of our achievements, but we know that this has only been possible with the generosity and support of the Wakatipu Community.
