Supporting older men’s health through Men’s Sheds
Older men are also a group whose circumstances can render them vulnerable in various ways, and the Foundation has supported MENZSHED New Zealand ...
The agreement with Elli Cares was announced on 15 May 2025 at the “Scaling Investments into Social Impact” forum co-hosted by the Foundation, the Impact Investing Network and Forsyth Barr. This event brought together impact investors, philanthropists, intermediaries, impact-led enterprises and pioneers in the social impact investment ecosystem to explore how investing capital into scalable investment opportunities can deliver competitive financial returns alongside transformative outcomes for communities – in economic participation, ageing well, health and more.
With this potential for social good, therefore, Selwyn invites others to partner with us to deliver values-aligned social impact at scale, so that every older person in Aotearoa New Zealand can age with dignity and respect, now and in generations to come.
