financially supported by the Trust but also started from discussions initiated by the Trust. Several more examples are currently in the thinking stage.

There are problems and dangers, of course.

An example of a problem is communication. Most people would be rather vague about who we are and what we do. I describe this as a problem because we hold public money on trust and we would like to be accountable, not just formally but also in reality.

We tell local news media what we are doing, of course, but they judge what is news and what we are doing mostly isn’t.*

At this stage we are responding to this problem by building linkages with leaders in the arts and culture, sports and recreation, social services, and business communities.

A story will illustrate one possible danger.

Recently, an organisation approached us to almost completely pay for a particular project. Conversation revealed that the project was not thought important enough for the organisation’s “own money”. They had better uses for their money and so we found better uses for ours.

It is not just that supporting this project would have been an ineffective use of funds. A more subtle danger is that to have supported it would actually have taken something away from the organisation. Independence, self-reliance, and ownership: these qualities are to be found in a healthy community. We would do actual harm if, by being a soft touch, we compromised them.

But the problems and dangers are minor. There are some great things going on in our communities and there are more opportunities for the future. We will work in partnership with others to help shape that future. We are enthusiastic about the prospect and thankful for the opportunity to be involved.

Trustees and staff

This year I again acknowledge and thank fellow trustees for their commitment and their wisdom and the congenial way in which we are able to carry out our business.

And again I acknowledge similar qualities in the people who do the work: Chief Executive Keith Ellwood, Donations Assessor Carol Melville and office staff Fay Jackson and Lynley Stevenson. The Trust is fortunate to have these people, and so is the public.

There is a typical example in the newspaper on the day I write this. A Government contribution of $50,000 to the Rail Trail is front-page news. Our $100,000 contribution to the Rail Trail was page 14 regional news.

A full list of donations may be obtained from The Chief Executive, The Community Trust of Otago, P.O. Box 5751, Dunedin.
