Mazda Foundation supports wildlife and the community
A new hospital for injured penguins and more than 100 food parcels for Kiwi families in need were just some of the 17 grants given in the first Mazda Foundation funding round for 2023.
The foundation gifted more than $55,000 to individuals and community organisations around the country, supporting environmental, animal welfare and educational initiatives, and New Zealanders in need. Since 2005, the foundation has given over $4.5 million back to the community.
