Katikati Local Impact Fund
Supporting local people and community projects
The Katikati Local Impact Fund has been created to support the people, groups, and initiatives that make this community strong — now and for generations to come.
Established by the Acorn Foundation, this endowment fund will provide ongoing support for projects and initiatives led by local charities, community organisations, and non-registered groups that are focused on building community in the Katikati region.
As part of Acorn’s Local Impact Fund programme, this fund supports grassroots community activity — the kinds of local efforts that bring people together and help strengthen the community. That might include sports club events, youth or school-led initiatives, shared gardens or beautification projects, walking or fitness groups, community workshops, neighbourhood gatherings, and other locally led initiatives that foster connection — and more.
Donations are pooled and invested with Acorn’s wider fund. Each year, a portion of the investment returns is distributed to benefit the Katikati community. A locally based committee, appointed by Acorn, helps guide where that funding goes — ensuring it reflects the needs and priorities of the community.
