ABOUT US
Since 2003 Advance Ashburton Community Foundation has provided a lasting way for local people to support the local causes they care about most.
At Advance Ashburton the simple act of giving goes a long way. The smart, effective and simple way the Foundation works means your donation stays local, goes further and lasts forever.
Advance Ashburton is a low-cost organisation, governed by a local volunteer Board, so your donation is not eroded by unnecessary costs and fees. You have the benefit of talking to local people with local knowledge about how your donation will make a real impact to the community you love.
