DONATIONS
The Centre for Fine Woodworking is a registered charity. Our charitable status was granted to us in recognition of our quest to preserve and pass on the time honoured skills to future generations of woodworkers. We are the only not for profit woodworking school in New Zealand.
Much of what goes on behind the scenes here to create this very special place is due to a small team of people with an absolute passion and belief in the school. The voluntary work and endless goodwill from the trustees and our staff of five. Those of you have been here in the workshop understand the uniqueness of our school and have experienced the quality of the teaching from experts in their field who are passionate about sharing their knowledge.
For our school to flourish and continue to be an internationally-recognised centre for fine woodworking, we rely on our woodworking community to achieving our vision.

One-Time Donation
A larger donation or bequest of an amount of your choosing.
If you would like to make a one-off donation or contribute towards a specific piece of equipment or project then please do get in touch so we can discuss this further.
Monthly Donation
The school is happy to provide tea and coffee to our students to keep them fueled for the day. A monthly donation can be thought of as the equivalent of buying the school a cup of coffee each week. It might not seem like a small amount would matter, but these monthly donations add up and collectively make a big difference.
Annual Donation
Annual donations assist us with operating and overhead expenses. We appreciate your support!
All donations can be filed with your annual tax return in order to receive a tax credit for your gift.
A formal receipt will be issued as proof of your donation for the IRD.
