Whai Rawa

Tikanga hou, oranga hou – Changing habits, changing lives

Whai Rawa is a medium to long term savings programme set up by Te Rūnanga o Ngāi Tahu in 2006 to improve the wellbeing of Ngāi Tahu whānau. Whai Rawa aims to provide a vehicle for distributions to whānau, encouraging savings for home ownership, education and retirement, being a ‘best of class’ savings vehicle and growing financial capability. If you are living in New Zealand or Australia and are a registered Ngāi Tahu tribal member you are eligible to join Whai Rawa.
