What a Community Group Fund is

A Community Group Fund with Acorn Foundation gives local organisations a long-term, sustainable means to secure their future. Instead of depending solely on one-off fundraising campaigns or the unpredictability of grants, contributions to the fund are invested, and the annual returns become a reliable income stream.

This steady support empowers the organisation to plan ahead, invest in infrastructure or staff, and continue to deliver great community value, year after year. The capital remains intact, so the fund remains a lasting legacy for the group and the wider community.

About Otumoetai Golf Club

Founded on a former dairy-farm site in 1956 and officially established as Otumoetai Golf Club in 1964, the club sits on park-like grounds less than 4 km from Tauranga city centre.  The course is mostly flat and easily walked, making it accessible and welcoming for a broad spectrum of golfers, from beginners to seasoned players. 

The club’s mission is to provide an affordable, friendly golfing experience and to serve as a community hub for people who love the sport. With the establishment of a Community Group Fund via Acorn Foundation, the club is setting the groundwork for long-term stability in its operations and capacity to maintain its facilities.

Supporting this fund means you’re helping ensure that the Otumoetai Golf Club can continue providing quality golfing, remain financially robust, and keep welcoming players of all ages and abilities into its fold.
