Charity Details

Deregistration details

Legal name of the Charity:

Project Moonshot Limited

Other Name (inc Trading Name):

Project:Moonshot

Registration number:

CC60069

NZBN number:

N/A

Current Status:

Deregistered

Deregistration Date Requested:

31/03/2025

Deregistration Reason:

The charity no longer meets the requirements for registration (for example, the charity now has non-charitable purposes, or has converted to a for-profit structure since it was originally registered)

Reason why charity no longer meets requirements:

After working through the project moonshot vision in a not for profit and bootstrapped capacity from 2019 to 2022, the team decided to advance this effort and applied for a grant. On the successful approval and award of this grant, the team formalised this as an entity and applied for a charity status in 2022, primarily to service these grant deliverables. These have now been met and completed and all of this effort and progress has been summarised on our website. The leadership team and advisory board during this time were servicing this effort, whilst having their full time jobs and commitments. With the grant deliverables now closed, the team has agreed to phase out the charity. They may continue to service initiatives that continue to align with this vision in a bootstrapped or consulting capacity depending on their bandwidth (like they were doing prior to 2022) but we don’t foresee ourselves applying for future grants or raising charity funding to support this vision.
