Successful Recipients
Celebrating those making a real difference in our communities.
The Auckland Airport Community Trust has generously partnered with CAP since 2016. CAP is so grateful for the Trust’s funding which has enabled families living in poverty due to unmanageable debt access to long-term holistic help and support which they so desperately need. The Trust is both professional and innovative, community-minded and empathetic. We applaud them for the fantastic work they are doing in their Area of Benefit.
