Keeping it local
From Huia to Whenuapai and everywhere in between, The Trusts are all about keeping things local in our communities.
That’s why our surplus profits go right back into local schools, community groups, businesses, and people who are dedicated to helping our place thrive.
Owned by the community. Run by the community. For the community.
Our Funds
There are five avenues for support from The Trusts.
Our Support and Innovation Funds help local community organisations handle major projects, cover operational costs and foster new initiatives.
For a little extra helping hand throughout the year our smaller Supporter’s Club and Community Donations provide a boost to local projects while our Sponsorships bring extra funds to businesses working to enhance The West.
If you need help to bring about positive change in our community find out how we can support you or get in touch!

A new hospitality venue is coming! 📢
We know it's taken a while (really, we know!) but we're excited to announce that building consent is now approved and construction on our new freehouse at 3008 Great North Road in New Lynn has started today!
Contractors are on-site and we'll be sharing progress updates as the build takes shape, follow along to see it come
This 10 October, Manaaki Rangatahi is bringing World Homeless Day to The West, creating a welcoming space where rangatahi can connect with support services, access practical resources and know there's a community standing beside them.
We're proud to back the event through our Your West Support Fund, helping bring together the organisations, advocates and volunteers working every day to support young people experiencing housing insecurity.
Youth homelessness isn't always visible. Many young people are couch surfing or moving between temporary places to stay, making their experiences easy to overlook. That's why days like this matter.
If you're a community organisation, local business or someone who wants to support this kaupapa, Manaaki Rangatahi would love to hear from you.

Curtain up in Glen Eden this week! 🌹
Beauty and the Beast Jr. hits the stage at Glen Eden Playhouse Theatre from 3 to 5 September, brought to you by the wonderful cast and crew at Glass Ceiling Arts Collective, a company where performers with and without disabilities share the spotlight.
These young performers have put in a huge amount of mahi, and they would love to look out at a full house of friendly faces. There are also a limited number of Pay What You Can tickets for each performance, because cost shouldn't be the reason anyone misses out.
Grab your seats here: www.glassceilingartscollective.com/events/beauty-and-the-beast-jr-in-west-auckland
Tell your whānau, your mates, your neighbours. Let's fill the Playhouse.
