Love Wānaka supports organisations and initiatives who work in the climate, conservation and biodiversity space – accelerating our region’s shift towards a regenerative future.

We’re here to support your mahi – here’s how:

Each year, we allocate funds to local organisations who work in the environmental sector.

Funding is allocated to registered charitable entities who work in the Wānaka region in the climate, conservation, and biodiversity spaces, with special consideration given to organisations and initiatives that will provide long-term benefit and enrich the experience for both locals and visitors in Wānaka.

Funding applications for 2024 are now closed, but we invite you to click through for further funding information or to reach out to [email protected] with any questions, ideas, or initiatives you have in mind.

Love Wānaka connects visitors with volunteer opportunities within our region, so they can lend an hour, or two, to a local cause that’s close to their hearts.

Fill in the form here to get your events and volunteer opporunities live!

For ongoing or recurring events, feel free to contact us regarding a permanent listing.

We want to connect our visitors to our place by sharing the stories of our people. Reach out if you have a story to tell, a community event to promote, or an opportunity for visitors to get their hands dirty.
