Our Story

Every Monday, we deliver food parcels to members of our community. Thanks to our generous donors and volunteers, we are able to support individuals and whānau on the Hibiscus Coast with one of the most basic human needs.

The Primary Project programme has been designed to compliment the 24-7 initiative. We currently provide four Youth Workers who are placed across six local primary schools. The programme helps young people thrive through positive mentoring and relationship building.

Our Youth Wellbeing facilitators lead a variety of programmes across schools in the Orewa Kahui Ako (a cluster of 7 schools on the Hibiscus Coast with a combined student population of approx. 4500). These programmes address specific needs in relation to the behavioural, emotional, social, and general wellbeing of students experiencing increased anger, loss, grief, disengagement, and adverse weather events.

We have had the privilege of working closely with Orewa College since 2015. Currently, we have five youth workers based at Orewa College, working under the nationwide 24-7 Youth Programme. Our team work closely with the College's Guidance Department, and teaching staff, to offer a relationship based mentoring programme to students needing additional support and friendship.
