Te Hiku Iwi Development Trust
We have started working with Te Hiku Iwi
Development Trust, formed by Ngāi Takoto, Te
Apōuri, and Te Rarawa, on developing a joint
action plan.
Some marae are lucky enough to be supported, at least in part, by ahu whenua land trusts which may make donations, in money or in kind, to keep the marae running.
