Our next recipient is Tipu Skills For Life! Tipu is a long-term, early intervention therapeutic programme with a simple but powerful vision: to empower young people with skills for life, so they can imagine and grow a positive future.

The programme is designed for 9 to 11 year olds, with six participants in each group, offering a safe and nurturing space to build emotional resilience, confidence, and healthy relationships. Year-round mentoring is also available for some participants beyond the programme itself.

The WBOP Women's Fund grant of $5,000 will help Tipu deliver one of these programmes in a local Tauranga school, reaching tamariki and whānau who need it most.

The feedback from whānau, participants and referees says it all:

"I learned that I am priceless, no matter what anyone says, and that I can do anything I put my mind to."
"My girl has learned how to handle her emotions and share them with her sister."
"She is not afraid to take some leadership roles and comes to school on time now, happy."

This is early intervention at its best, building skills and confidence in young girls that will serve them, their whānau and their communities for a lifetime.

Thank you, Tipu Skills for Life, for the incredible mahi you do. 🩵
