For a better Cambridge for everyone, forever!
Cambridge looking after its own needs is the driving principle for a new philanthropic investment fund set up to support the town and its people.
The Cambridge Community Charitable Trust has got together with Momentum Waikato, the region’s community foundation, to establish the Cambridge Community Fund, an endowment that will generate investment income for charitable activities and projects in the Waipa centre.
The Fund was officially launched with a well-attended function at Te Awa Retirement Village on the outskirts of Cambridge on Wednesday 16 October 2024.
Inaugural Fund Champions David Cooney and Kevin Burgess say it’s the ideal scenario – a Cambridge-focused charitable fund enabled by a region-wide philanthropic investment entity.
“The Cambridge Community Fund is a cost-effective way for local people to leave a legacy forever to their town,” says Kevin, who is well known locally as a pharmacist, trustee on various boards and athletics supporter.
“Money donated will benefit Cambridge forever, with the partnership with Momentum providing credibility, collegial knowledge, and back office and governance support.
