The supreme winner at last night's Sustainable Business Awards Community Finance helps charities fund affordable housing to help Kiwis locked out of rental accommodation.  Community housing providers like the Salvation Army can access funds from social investors through Community Finance, which works like the glue between like the philanthropist and community housing providers, building new, energy-efficient and affordable homes. Not only did Community Finance scoop the Supreme award, it also came top in the Outstanding Collaboration category. Kathryn speaks with Community Finance Chief Executive James Palmer.
