The Tremains Community Trust is a registered charity, established in 2016 to provide financial support to individuals and families experiencing real hardship. A portion of every successful sale made through Tremains is directed straight to the Trust, and we’re proud to say that 100 percent of those funds go back into the communities we serve.
The Trust was created to help people who may not usually seek assistance but find themselves facing difficult times. Whether it’s covering essential household costs, providing relief during a crisis, or offering a break for carers, the Tremains Community Trust is here to ease the pressure and make a meaningful difference.
How the Trust Works
Each region where Tremains operates has its own fundraising pool. That means money raised in a local area stays in that area, providing targeted support where it’s needed most. No admin fees are taken and every dollar donated goes directly to nominated recipients, ensuring the impact is immediate and measurable.
Nominations for support open each year around October. You’ll be asked to share contact details, a brief overview of the nominee’s situation, and why you believe they should be considered. Nominations are reviewed in November by our committee, with successful recipients usually contacted before the end of the year.
Support is typically provided in the form of goods, services or vouchers, up to a value of $1,000.
The Trust welcomes contributions from individuals, businesses and community partners. If you'd like to help, please get in touch at: communitytrust@tremains.co.nz
Every donation goes directly to individuals and families selected by the Trust. Your support helps meet real needs in real time.
At Tremains, we believe in supporting the people who make our communities strong. The Tremains Community Trust is one of the many ways we give back- quietly, directly and with heart. By nominating someone in need, making a donation or simply sharing the word, you’re helping build a stronger, more connected community.
