Bringing positive change to North Auckland

Salt Community Trust is an independent charity dedicated to providing essential support to children, youth, and whānau in our community.

We believe in the power of community

For over 14 years, we’ve supported the North Auckland community with food parcels, primary school big buddies, youth mentoring and wellbeing programmes. Our vision is for everyone in our community to have the opportunity to thrive and fulfil their potential, no matter their age, stage, or context.

Community Services

We actively engage with our community through a range of charitable services. Our Primary Project, 24-7 and youth wellbeing programmes allow us to help children and youth in eight different local schools, and our food bank and community dance programmes provide support to a wide range of people in North Auckland.

Social Enterprise

We have three vibrant op shops operating in Orewa, Silverdale and Wairau, packed full of quality second hand goods. The proceeds from these op shops go directly to our community work, allowing us to continue to support the North Auckland region with essential services. We’d love to see you at one of our stores – our passionate staff and volunteers are looking forward to meeting you!
