An Auckland court has ruled a woman doesn’t have to contribute towards the cost of fixing a driveway she shares with 10 neighbours.
When thinking about fences, driveways or tree felling, for example, do you think all neighbours should have to pay if the improvements directly benefit them?

Here’s what to watch out for:
🔍 Unrealistic offers or promises of easy money that are too good to be true
🔍 Pressure tactics: Scammers may rush or threaten you to act immediately.
🔍 Requests for personal info: Be cautious if you’re asked for bank details, passwords, or sensitive information.
🔍 Unusual payment methods like gift cards, cryptocurrency, or wire transfers.
🔍 Unverified contacts: Emails, calls, or messages from unknown or suspicious sources.
How to protect yourself:
✅ Stop and think before sharing personal details or making payments.
✅ Don't click on any links until you know that it is safe.
✅ Verify the source: Contact the organisation directly using official channels.
✅ If something’s not right, it's OK to hang up, walk away, ignore it and move on.

This year the Boys Brigade Waikato Trust applied the income from its Fund to providing grants that enabled three young men, Joel Chernishov, Jake Guyan and Dylan Young, to attend Stage 1 of Boys Brigade's National Leadership Development Course at Nelson Lakes in July.
Joel reported back that he "liked the way the course forces you to learn through practical challenges".
Jake (in yellow jacket in group shot below) said "All of the teaching sessions where insightful and eye opening in what they made me see in myself as a leader and the way I lead and work within a group".
Dylan said "I had such a great time and learned so many things and really went outside my comfort zone and had a blast. My favourite part was definitely the views. This was my first time in Nelson and I would never imagine how beautiful it truly was, so spending a couple nights with the beautiful sunsets and sunrises was incredible."

If your community trust or group is considering setting up an endowment fund to generate investment income for grants to individuals or projects, get in touch with us here at Momentum Waikato.
