The Waikato District Community Wellbeing Trust is a new registered charitable trust.
The Trust is the capital beneficiary of the Waikato Foundation Trust and its primary purpose is to fund projects that will:
• Promote the social, economic and cultural wellbeing of the Waikato District and its communities
• Deliver on the strategic aspirations of Waikato District as identified as unfunded in the Council’s Annual or Long Term Plans or as listed in the Projects for External Funding.
The Trust consists of five members who comprise the Mayor and Deputy Mayor of Waikato District, the Chair of the Water and Facilities Committee and two other people appointed by Waikato District Council. These people, by virtue of their community position, skills and qualifications or background, are likely to enhance the operation and decision making of the Trust.
Waikato District Council invites applications from interested persons for the two available positions.
Applications must include a letter stating why you are interested in being on the Trust Board and a CV outlining your relevant experience. Applications close on Monday 23 May 2011at 5pm.
