The Regional Fund

$5.1m

The $5.1 million Regional Fund was part of the one-off, $25 million Special Fund launched to help restore the fabric of the community and social infrastructure in Canterbury following the devastating Canterbury earthquakes over three years ago.

  • $3.25m – Nelson/Tasman
  • $1.74m – Marlborough/Kaikoura
  • $100k – Chatham Islands

Made up of $3.25 million for Nelson, $1.74 million for Marlborough/Kaikoura and $100,000 for the Chatham Islands, the Regional Fund was established in recognition of the fact that all of Rātā Foundation’s funding regions have been affected by the earthquakes to some degree.
