Otago Community Trust

Summer Pānui

Tēnā koutou Otago,

The last quarter of the year has seen the Trust expand the team with three new kaimahi to take us into 2025. We've had several grants rounds with some exciting events and initiatives on the horizon and we've caught up with some previous grantees to share the amazing mahi they have been doing.

In this final pānui for the year, we've got an array of updates to share with you:

As the year wraps up, we hope you are able to spend time with friends and whānau over the summer/Christmas break. We're looking forward to all of the exciting things to come in 2025 and celebrating your mahi in the new year.
