Cure Parkinson's NZ Wellington Fund

Give a gift today, to invest in a Parkinson’s disease free future.

Cure Parkinson's NZ's mission is to find a cure for Parkinson's disease through crucial research, advocacy, community awareness and education, and lobbying for legislative change.

The Cure Parkinson's NZ Wellington Fund was established with Nikau Foundation in 2024 with the goal of maximising their fundraising and building a reliable, long-term funding stream to support all aspects of their work.

All donations made to the fund will be responsibly invested, grown and protected to support all aspects of Cure Parkinson's NZ's work, including funding crucial research, increasing awareness and education, and lobbying for legislative change, long-term.

Nikau Foundation is a registered charity – CC24793. Nikau Foundation’s IRD number is 059145290. A donation given via the Nikau Foundation website is an unconditional gift for tax purposes. A donation given via the Nikau Foundation website is non-refundable. When you donate through the Nikau Foundation website or a Nikau Foundation donation portal via donorbox, your gift will be directed to the fund that you select when donating. If you make a mistake in your online donation, and would like it to be redirected to another fund, please let us know by emailing accounts@nikaufoundation.nz within 48 hours of donating. After this time, we will unfortunately be unable to redirect your donation. Your donation will be invested by Nikau Foundation’s nominated Fund Managers in line with its Responsible Investment Policy and SIPO (Statement of Investment Principles and Objectives). If the fund to which you have donated ceases to exist for any reason, we will redirect your donation to another fund with a similar focus. All grants from Nikau Foundation will be distributed to the community causes for which a fund has been established OR back to the organisation who has established the fund in line with Nikau Foundation’s distribution policy. Please note that grants will only be distributed from a fund once the fund balance reaches $75,000. The giving focus of a fund is at the discretion of the donor/organisation for which it was established. From time to time, the giving focus of the fund may be updated to ensure it can respond to community needs and the needs of the organisation. Nikau Foundation is a registered charity, and therefore, the donor may be entitled to an income tax rebate of 33.33% depending on their tax circumstances.
