Rata Foundation
Rātā Foundation, formerly The Canterbury Community Trust, was established in 1988. As the South Island’s largest philanthropic funder, Rātā Foundation receives no income from other funders or gaming machines, making it unique and independent in the region’s philanthropic community. Over the last three decades we have assisted hundreds of organisations through grants totalling over $434 million to help communities in need.
The Mainland Foundation
The Mainland Foundation is an independent hotel-based society licensed to operate gaming machines in hotels and taverns, raising money for distribution to the Community. Our Net Proceeds Committee generally meets twice a month to consider applications.
