Lantern Fund

Give the Gift of Light
This fund will ensure that the City's lanterns can be added to and refreshed on a regular basis.
All the new lanterns will be designed and built in greater Ōtautahi Christchurch and will be powered by electricity.
Residents of greater Christchurch want our city to be a place where everyone feels welcome. A place that celebrates and embraces our diversity, and where people can come together to connect. This project is a part of our Vibrant Ōtautahi programme that is working to enable this community led aspiration.
We are very excited to announce the founding gift of $5,000.00, received with thanks and much appreciation from The Christchurch Casino.
Thank you!

Governors Bay Jetty

For almost 150 years, Governors Bay Jetty has drawn people from far and wide to a magical seascape at the head of the harbour.
Since the earthquakes, the Jetty has sat in disrepair… but not for much longer! With over $1 million raised so far, the Trust will soon sign a construction contract to begin the rebuild in 2022.
