Supporting local Taupō families
Who is the One Taupō Trust?
The One Taupō Trust organises the Malcolm Flowers Insurances Taupō Winter Festival held annually in July.
Proceeds from the festival are used to provide financial assistance to families needing to travel outside of the district to seek specialist medical care.
Who is eligible for support?
If you live in the greater Taupō region and have to travel outside of the region for tests or specialist medical treatment for a family member, then you are eligible to ask us for help.
What sort of help might we receive?
Each application is assessed on a case-by-case basis, however often support comes in the form of petrol or food vouchers to support your family during this time.
How do I apply?
If you think you might qualify, we would like to hear from you. You can also apply on behalf of someone else if you wish.
Want to support the trust?
If you’d like to support the One Taupō Trust, please think about donating directly from this site, 100% of the money goes directly to the families in need.
There is also the opportunity to become part of the One Taupō Troupe (our Friends of the Trust programme for the Taupō Winter Festival). This includes complimentary tickets to festival shows.
