The 5% Project
At Shining Peak we’re strong believers that every business should have a social mission at its core. Our mission is for our beer to make the world a better place.
Every month 5% of our beer revenues from our venues, are donated to a different local Taranaki organisation. Not profits…… revenues, that’s approximately 30 to 50% of our venue’s profit – we give away to local organisations each and every month. No terms and conditions, no small print – we just put the money straight into the back pockets of important local organisations and charities here in Taranaki.
Drink Beer, Do Good.
Hardship To Hope Foundation
It is an unfortunate fact that requiring medical care can be a major inconvenience. And it is even worse when it is our Tamariki that become ill. Not only do you have the stress of your child being unwell, but there are often lots of hidden expenses. You may need to travel out of the region to receive specialist care. You will then have petrol cost. The cost of food. The accommodation. On top of this you may have to take time off work and so cannot earn money for a short period. It all takes
its toll.
This is where the Hardship to Hope Fund comes in. The Hardship to Hope Fund is available to Taranaki families who may need a bit of extra, temporary, support while their children receive the
care they need. The fund is used to supply various items, from petrol vouchers and grocery vouchers to blankets for newborns and toiletries and hygiene packs. Hardship to Hope receives no funding from any government sources and is dedicated to supporting families in Taranaki who find themselves in challenging times due to circumstances outside their control.
Donations go a long way to providing the support these families need. We are also always looking for wool blankets to be recycled into blankets for newborns. If you have any available or would like to know more about the fund, please email info@thf.org.nz.
