The Catalytic Foundation has over 40 years of experience in connecting businesses and philanthropists with New Zealand communities in need.
The Catalytic Foundation (formerly United Way NZ Charitable Trust) helps donors maximise their social impact. Our extensive knowledge and relationships with the community sector across New Zealand means that we can wisely invest back into regions where support is needed most.
Charities and non-profits seek to address major social issues. Unfortunately, many lack the scale and resources to help them with the problems they seek to solve. Our role is to pull together collective resources to drive social change through our community partnerships, research, advocacy and capacity building.
The rise of catalytic philanthropy has been motivated by the growing need and desire for donors to take greater social responsibility. COVID-19 has shown us that everyone can contribute something to help make New Zealand a better place. By leveraging the catalytic philanthropy model, we can unlock time, money and resources from businesses and donors and by combining them with the non-profit sector, be catalysts for
change.
Whether your main resource is volunteer-time or hard-earned dollars, catalytic philanthropy can collectively make a big social impact and create transformational change.
The Charity surveys we conduct are vital for us to convey the needs of the community. We are a voice for a hard-working community and we conduct fundraising campaigns through our online community hub to help specific needs.
