# Charity Transparency Hub
> https://charitytransparency.nz/

Transparency initiative for community resilience — citation-led public finance monitor for New Zealand charities in Te Puke and the Bay of Plenty.

## What this site is
Charity Transparency Hub helps communities value the future resilience of charities by importing NZ Charities Services latest annual returns and confirmed DIA Class 4 pokie grant matches. It shows income, expenses, salary-to-income ratios, grant dependency, operating cost pressure, and volunteer-run indicators ($0 personnel, 0 paid employees) with source citations. It does not rank charities as good or bad.
