This rating may reflect incomplete data

This charity's grade of D+ is based on limited data from the NZ Charities Register, which does not provide detailed expense breakdowns. Without verified program vs admin spending, efficiency scoring is unavailable and the financial score relies on health metrics only. This charity's actual performance may differ from what the available data suggests.

Endowment Foundation

Special Entity Type

This is an endowment foundation that holds investments and provides grants. High reserves are expected and appropriate - this is not an operating charity.

Rating Note: Endowment foundations are rated using specialized criteria that recognize high reserves as appropriate. Metrics like grant distribution rate and investment returns are prioritized over program spending ratios.
