The profits from these two bars and the net proceeds from the Lion Foundation pokie machines located in each bar, are distributed each year to community groups in the Trust’s local area. In the Covid affected 2021/2022 period the Trust distributed close to $1,200,000 of net proceeds to groups in the Birkdale, Beachhaven, Birkenhead, Glenfield and Northcote.
The Trust has six elected trustees. The trustees are elected at the same time as the Auckland Council local body elections. The trustee’s role is to oversee the businesses and to consider and approve net proceed grants to local community groups.
