As one of 17 community foundations in Aotearoa New Zealand, they offer a unique approach to charitable giving through their Smarter Giving Model.

With over $56 million in funds under management, Acorn Foundation has distributed over $13 million to the community, supporting hundreds of charitable organizations. Donors have the option to establish endowments that benefit the community even after they pass away or to see their contributions at work during their lifetime. Acorn Foundation also offers opportunities to support the community through scholarships and awards. Established in 2003, the foundation has a rich history of success, marked by significant milestones and achievements. They have a strong network of 17 community foundations across New Zealand, collectively granting over $60 million in the past five years.
