Nau mai, haere mai!

Many charities and faith-based organisations hold reserves, manage donor funds, or steward resources intended to serve their mission over the long term. Yet making confident financial decisions — particularly around investing — can feel complex, unclear, or out of reach.

In this practical and thought-provoking session, Keryn Martin (Kaitiaki Foundation) will explore how organisations can strengthen their financial foundations through clearer thinking, better governance, and a long-term perspective.

Drawing on his experience supporting charities across Aotearoa, Keryn will unpack:

• How to think about reserves, cash flow, and long-term sustainability

• The role of investing (and when it may or may not be appropriate)

• Key governance considerations including risk, time horizon, and purpose alignment

• How organisations can make informed decisions without losing sight of mission

This session is not about selling a financial approach — it’s about equipping leaders and boards to better understand their options, ask the right questions, and steward resources wisely for lasting impact.

Ideal for board members, CEOs, and finance or operations leaders in faith-based and for-purpose organisations.

Please join us on the Friday,
14th of August
12 pm - 1 pm
