Community, Connection & Collective Impact

Session Abstract: Community, Connection & Collective Impact: The Power of Local Philanthropy


This session explores how community philanthropy is quietly transforming regions like Hawke’s Bay by turning generosity into long-term, locally driven impact. Drawing on examples from the Hawke’s Bay Foundation, we’ll look at how collective giving models pool resources from everyday donors and philanthropic partners to build permanent funds that support community priorities now and into the future. The discussion will unpack the evolving role of philanthropy in addressing inequality, strengthening social cohesion, and enabling communities to respond to change with resilience and agency. It will also invite reflection on legacy, purpose, and the ways individuals can meaningfully contribute to the wellbeing of the place they call home.


Dates: Tuesday 27th October

Time & format: The course will start at 10am, with a coffee and tea break followed by a lively facilitated discussion to answer all your curious questions. The course will finish at 12pm each week.

Location: We are delighted to be hosting at The Common Room, 227 Heretaunga Street East, Hastings 4122
