| Summary: | "Whānau, hapū and iwi, education, sport and social service organisations will find the account of this marae-based whà̋̃̄nau mentoring programme well worth reading. Ngȧ̃̄ti Pareraukawa, a hapū based on the western side of Lake Horowhenua, set out to boost participation in marae activities by rewarding members with a bond to a mentor from the marae. Initally, mentees were young people; rangatahi drawn to the marae for support and the opportunity to set health and education goals. Almost instantaneously, their parents suggested that the mentoring programme be extended to include all whānau, regardless of age. Parents and grandparents set goals, attended hui, reported on their achievements and added a creative dynamic to the programme. This book records the first six years of the programme. It is marae-based, yet reaches out to North and South Island communities where clusters of whã̄nau reside. It has been supported by one of New Zealand's most well-known philanthropic donors: the JR McKenzie Trust. This interesting donor-donee relationship is further explored and attracts the interest of the Philanthropic community"--Back cover. |
