Over $1 million was distributed to Otago organisations by the Otago Community Trust last month. The Otago Community Trust distributed a total of $1,080,900, of which 826,000 was for its annual Regional Sports Development Grants. A further $254,900 was donated to 24 community organisations throughout Otago in June. Some of the large monthly donations included:
· $56,500 to the St Martin Island Community for on-going restoration to the Married Quarters building on the Island.
· The Upper Clutha Tracks trust received $30,000 for two tracks in the Wanaka area.
· Lawrence Inc received $40,000 to cover a variety of events planned in March 2011 for the 150th anniversary of the discovery of gold in Gabriel’s Gully.
· The Fortune Theatre Trust received $45,000 towards this year's production costs, a similar amount to last year.
