Our Mission
Whakatuu Tuakana whakakohe, Whakamana a Taiohi.
Enable life-changing mentoring relationships to ignite the power and potential of taiohi/young people.
Our Programme
Our mentoring programme provides young people/taiohi with a safe and supportive relationship with an older volunteer mentor/tuakana. They will spend time together for a minimum of one hour a week for a minimum of one year (often longer), building their relationship with each other and their community by doing activities they both enjoy. The match is actively supervised and supported by Big Brothers Big Sisters to ensure it thrives.
Our Values
Our values drive our purpose. They capture our shared aspirations and expectations of each other. They guide us in how we behave, make decisions, treat each other and serve our community.
They ensure we are accountable to be at our best.
