As a Charitable Trust itself, Pub Charity supports communities all over New Zealand enabling organisations to reach their ambitions and benefit their community they serve. Thanks to our venue operators raising funds through operating our gaming machines, Pub Charity is able to make a huge difference to a wide range of local causes by returning millions of dollars to New Zealand communities.

If you know of a charitable organisation requiring funding assistance to reach their ambitions, get them to apply for a donation by picking up an application form from their local Pub Charity hotel/tavern or download one from www.pubcharity.org.nz.
