Expanding impact
The Eastern Bay Community Foundation has been bringing local people together to grow their impact since 2005. We connect caring people to local causes, helping to create lasting change in Whakatane and the wider Eastern Bay area. From supporting children and families to protecting the environment, our funds help to create positive, vibrant communities.
Since our establishment, we are proud to have already made a significant impact to our local community, thanks to the generosity of local donors.
We are a proud member of the Community Foundations of Aotearoa New Zealand.
