Grant stories

Behind every grant there is a story. Here we showcase a selection of both the grant projects and the ringa raupā (doers). Kia ora ngātahi ngā tamariki me ngā whānau i Aotearoa – Ola Manuia.

We believe all children and whānau in Aotearoa New Zealand should enjoy as much good health and wellbeing as possible. But we also know that a lot gets in the way of people flourishing. That's where MAS Foundation comes in.

Nāku te rourou, nāu te rourou, ka ora ai te iwi.
With your food basket and my food basket, the people will all prosper.
