Annual review of criteria, methods
etc of our distributions.
Our annual review of the criteria, methods etc for distributing the net proceeds from class 4 gambling was discussed on the 4th March 2008, at the Trustees meeting for the Whakaue Trust.
The outcome is that the Trust is happy with the procedures with the emphasis on distributing grants to genuine charitable organizations focusing on culture, education, youth and amateur sports applications.
The way the Trust is run can be seen in the donations given out widely in the district/community.
