Whakaraupō Carving Centre
When the Covid-19 pandemic struck in 2020, Ōhinehou-based Whakaraupō Carving Centre was unable to fulfil the demand for its whakairo toi classes, so they decided to develop an online course.

Our Wave funding is a social innovation model that gives whānau the agency to realise their own aspirations. We release one or two Wave rounds per year and welcome applications from individuals, whānau, community groups and businesses who want to run an initiative or programme that will support them and their hapori.
Wave funding supports with projects that seek to help whānau and hapori to thrive, and particularly to overcome the ongoing impacts of COVID-19. We are especially interested in projects that are designed and driven by the whānau and communities they seek to support. All projects must support our Whānau Ora outcomes, as outlined in the seven pou that guide us. Click here to learn more about the seven pou.
Applications for the latest funding round, Wave 17, closed at 12pm, Friday, February 24, 2023. If you have any pātai about Wave 17, please get in touch by emailing info@teputahitanga.org or calling 0800 187 689.

In colloboration with Tūmaia we deliver Te Pāpori o Whakatere, a development programme for successful Wave funded applicants. The programme aims to grow the Wave kaupapa into thriving initiatives that create sustainable change for whānau and communities. Te Pāpori o Whakatere is run as a series of wānanga where experts provide free legal, human resources, financial and marketing advice. Entrepreneurs also attend these wānanga to share their experiences and insights.
