The Whānau Ora commissioning agency for Te Waipounamu.
Whose approach aims to create social impact by investing directly in initiatives developed by whānau or community groups. Supporting a significant workforce of Whānau Ora navigators who work directly with whānau to support them to develop their own pathway plans. All mahi is centred on the philosophy that whānau must be placed at the centre of service design and delivery, supporting them to realise their own solutions. Over Te Tauihi o te Waka a Māui during the past 11 years Te Pūtahitanga o Te Waipounamu has connected with over 26,000 Whānau, supported close to 200 initiatives and start ups and we are truly humbled to have been one of those. We recieved tautoko from Te Pūtahitanga in 2022. Through their guidance, education and learnings we have been able to grow our kākano. Practice our mana motuhake and tino rangatiratanga. Te Pūtahitanga has spread a legacy that will live on in the success and achievements of the many whānau who have been blessed by knowing them. E mihi ana ki a koutou mō tō tautoko. For believing in us and allowing us to design our ara, to dream it and create it and watch it grow - ensuring that we truly are the architect of our future. Aroha rawa atu.
