One Percent Collective works for Wellington charities

Reporter Community News

Covid-19 could have been a disaster for Wellington charity the One Percent Collective, but instead the level of donations it receives has actually increased.
Donors donate a percentage of their income to the Collective, which distributes it to charities.
Charities it supports include including Garden to Table, Bellyful, Kaibosh, Upside Downs, DCM, Spinning Top, Take my Hands and Nga Rangitahi Toa.
One Percent Collective co-founder Pat Shepherd said he expected donations to decrease due to Covid but donations had instead increased.
