Last week, we were so delighted to connect with donors, for-purpose organisations and locals who are passionate about our communities at our ‘in conversation with’ event hosted at Ngā Manu Nature Reserve. This year, more than ever, we know that philanthropy is not a ‘nice to have’, that generosity is the lifeblood of our communities and that building reliable funding streams is pivotal in aiding the future resilience of our communities. But we also know that nurturing connection, encouraging conversation and bringing our communities together is an important part of effecting positive change. We were so delighted to welcome Pat Stuart, Chair of the Ngā Manu Trust, Margaret Nixon, Nikau Foundation donor and Denis Wood, Founder of The Shed Project to join us in a conversation about generosity and its role in their mahi, and their passions and aspirations for our community. A big thank you to Kāpiti Coast Deputy Mayor, Lawrence Kirby for hosting such an inspiring and energetic conversation.

Working with financial planners and paraplanners to serve clients
The acceleration in both impact and the reduction of friction in #climate #philanthropy that Global Returns Project have achieved over the last year is impressive. The robustness of their approach to identifying effective charities is neatly combined with clear, and regular, reporting. They fit well with our offering at Paradigm Norton Financial Planning (especially as a B-Corp). If you've not come across them I'd recommend checking them out. https://lnkd.in/e7T_bp5R

Philanthropy comes in all shapes and sizes, but it’s always about making a difference. 🌍 At the Stuller Family Foundation, we see firsthand how grassroots nonprofits, powered by passionate volunteers and limited resources, create lasting change. Philanthropy isn’t just for the wealthy—it's for all of us, in every community. 💡 Whether through time, expertise, or donations, each of us can contribute to making our world better. On #NationalPhilanthropyDay, let’s celebrate the impact of giving—and ask ourselves: What local projects can we support to make our community stronger? 🤝 #Philanthropy #CommunityImpact #GivingBack #StrongerTogether

We are delighted to announce the publication of the Golden Bottle Trust (GBT) annual report. We have chosen to structure this year’s annual report slightly differently – in a series of six thought pieces which provide an insight into the way we do things. They cover topics ranging from impact investment to environmental philanthropy and tell the story of how we have evolved our approach, while also sharing about the tools we use for our giving. We designed the report so that each section could stand on its own, meaning people can read the sections that interest them most. I hope that some of our approaches can be useful for others in their philanthropy. https://lnkd.in/etX8YYSU #Legacy #GoldenBottleTrust #HoareFamily #CharitableGiving #Philanthropy #Totalportfolioimpact
