TAKA Trust : A Better Education for a Better Future
Three out of every five young people living in areas of high deprivation stay there for life. That’s simply not good enough. The TAKA Trust seeks to provide our tamariki with access to the things that many Kiwi kids take for granted like sports, technology, cultural events, modern learning and the arts. These things should be available to all New Zealand tamariki and we aim to make this a reality in Lower Hutt.

Since 2012, TAKA Trust has helped provide access to many opportunities to empower our tamariki; here are some of the ways.
