About Us

Our Vision

Our vision is for Te Tai Tokerau to thrive through the spirit of local generosity.

We believe in the power of giving, and by enabling Northlanders to invest in their communities we help create a stronger future for all. Donations to Northland Community Foundation are invested with local investment advisors, with the returns distributed to support community projects that make a real difference.

This is generosity in action, building a lasting legacy for Northland.

We are proud to inspire generosity within our special corner of Aotearoa; connecting individuals, businesses, and organisations with opportunities to create deep funds that will support charitable and community causes across Te Tai Tokerau, Northland.

As one of the 18 Community Foundations across New Zealand under the umbrella of Community Foundations of Aotearoa New Zealand (CFANZ), as well as a member of Philanthropy New Zealand, we’re dedicated to growing funds and creating long-term community impact.
