Winner announced for The Great Pub Cash Giveaway
ILT is thrilled to announce the successful conclusion of the 2025 Great Pub Cash Giveaway, with one lucky winner taking home
ILT is incredibly proud to have given over $216 Million in grants and donations back to our community.
ILT has returned over $225 million back to the community through grants and donations since we as a city voted in this form of social enterprise in 1944. Each year over $8 million is granted to over 300 organisations who then apply this funding to a range of areas to support thriving community groups, a burgeoning arts’ culture, scholarships across tertiary education, trades, arts and sport, and world class facilities.
Our publicly elected board stand as representatives of our diverse population and this ensures grants and funding result in widespread community benefit. The concept of community ownership is both our uniqueness and our reason for being. It allows us to keep our community at the heart of all our initiatives as we strive to achieve our vision of A Vibrant Invercargill.
As we celebrate our 80th anniversary, let’s take a trip down memory lane together! Our documentary-style video captures the highlights of ILT’s rich history. Watch it here:
