TECT is a community-focused trust that supports the people, places and projects that bring connection, vibrancy and economic benefit to Tauranga and the Western Bay of Plenty.
We’re on a mission to make positive change in our community, improving the quality of life and wellbeing of current and future generations through our funding.
Since it was established in 1993, the fund has contributed significantly to the the growth of our rohe and its people. Our inclusive and transformational funding process brings life to grassroots organisations and large-scale multi-million-dollar projects alike.
As the Western Bay grows, the demand on infrastructure, both physical and social, continues to increase. This is where TECT’s support plays an increasingly critical role. Through responsibly managing our investments, we can effectively distribute funds for the long-term benefit of our community.
Today, the trust’s impact has echoed throughout our region, touching the lives of countless individuals now and in the future.
