A new Child and Youth Mental Health Outpatient Facility | Kahurangi

Our Hero Project

Recognising the urgent need for change, we have committed to raising $6 million toward the $15 million required to develop a world-class facility. To date, we have successfully raised $5 million towards our goal and are left with $1 million to secure. Help Māia fund 'Kahurangi', a modern, fit-for-purpose outpatient facility for Child and Youth Mental Health in our region.
