Who we are

The J R McKenzie Trust is a charitable Trust set up in 1940 by Sir John McKenzie, and continued by his family.  It has a 70-year history of helping to build stronger communities.

As an independent philanthropic Trust, we're able to support a very diverse range of organisations and initiatives.  We look for opportunities to build relationships with the organisations we support.  As well as grants, we look for other ways to create a socially just and inclusive Aotearoa New Zealand.
