Conservation funds welcome your donation...

Many people want to volunteer for conservation work, but more money is always needed to resource the labour offered.

Which is why there are three conservation-focused philanthropic investment funds at Momentum Waikato - donations grow ongoing income for local activities.

The Fund for Nature Hauraki-Coromandel support includes kiwi protection, trap building and training.

The Waikato Catchment Ecological Enhancement Fund supplies plants and pest control kit.

The Waikato Hauraki Conservation Fund is a ‘gap filler’ for things that volunteers need that are not usually funded.

The 23-carat pie that could be New Zealand’s most expensive

Libby Totton Reporter from Waikato Times

The Baker Tīrau has created what might be New Zealand's most luxurious, and expensive, take on a Kiwi classic steak and cheese pie and is auctioning it off for a good cause.

Made with wagyu beef, French red wine, the most expensive cheese he could get his hands on, and topped with 23-carat gold flakes, award-winning baker Shane Kearns is auctioning off his unique steak and cheese pie to raise funds for local volunteer fire-fighters.
