Te Hiku groups celebrate funding

23 September 2024

Four community groups will be celebrating after Te Hiku Community Board granted them a share of $12,500 in funding during its 17 September meeting.

Doubtless Bay Fishing Competition was granted $6500 towards the 2025 tournament. This fishing competition has been held around Doubtless Bay since the 1970s and distributes proceeds from the auction of all fish weighed-in to local community groups. For the 2025 tournament, 10 community groups have been nominated to receive funds, this includes emergency services groups, local marae, area school and sports clubs.

The Graham Dingle foundation was granted $3000 towards the Kiwi Can mentoring programme. The Kiwi Can programme will support seven Te Hiku schools and offers mentoring and teaches practical life skills.

Other community groups to receive funding for events are:

$2000 to SMC Events – Sanitarium Weet-Bix Kids Try Challenge.
$1000 to Te Kupenga Reo 2024 for venue hire to host a two-day event with speech, song, debate to encourage and normalise the use of Te Reo Māori. The event is open to all ages.

The next Te Hiku Community Board meeting will be held on Tuesday 22 October at Te Ahu. It can be watched live on the council’s Facebook and YouTube pages from 10am.
