Create a Named Fund
Establishing a Named Endowment Fund with Acorn is an easy way to create an enduring legacy in the region you call home. The Acorn team will walk you through the process to ensure that your giving objectives are met. We’ll help you choose how and when you donate, and who your fund supports.

Give to the Acorn
Vital Impact Fund
We recognise that not everyone is ready to set up an endowment fund but still may be passionate about supporting our community.
The Acorn Vital Impact Fund might be the perfect giving option for you.
The Acorn Vital Impact Fund distributes to local charitable organisations in the WBOP with the greatest need to receive funding. Make your charitable giving last forever by donating to this fund.
More and more businesses are taking an interest in corporate social responsibility and choosing to give back to the communities in which they work. We know that social good is increasingly important to employees and it will play a more significant role as the younger generations select their preferred employer.
There are many local organisations in the Western Bay of Plenty - large and small - doing great things in our communities. Corporate Giving through Acorn can take many forms, and is an easy way to make a difference in the region we all love.
Transfer a Trust
If you are involved with a charitable family or corporate trust and finding BAU difficult after changes to the Trusts Act, Acorn can help. Transferring a trust to the Acorn Foundation provides a simple and effective option. Our low cost structure means capital stays intact and protects it against inflationary pressures, while returning income back to our community.
