New Financial Literacy Fund
Cambridge philanthropists, John and Nicola Kenel, supported by their business Assured Property, recently established a new named fund with Momentum Waikato. The 'Financial Literacy Fund' will support students with critical financial literacy skills needed before they embark on their working careers; change their habits from 'spend, spend, spend' to one where they learn to prioritise money and save for things they need. This fund will instill our youth with hope that they can strive to achieve their goals.
Over the next year before the first round of distributions are made, we want to learn what programmes are out there that we may be able to help support and grow. Talk to us at Momentum Waikato Community Foundation.

What's your favourite tomato recipe?
Kia ora neighbours. We know your tomato plants are still growing, but we're looking ahead to the harvest already! If you've got a family recipe for tomatoes, we'd love to see it and maybe publish it in our magazine to share with our readers.

Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?
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?
