Tā mātou pae kahurangi i te tau 3000. Our vision. Ko te matepukupuku ki te pō, ko ngā whānau Māori ki Te Wheiao, ki Te Ao Mārama.
Ō mātou uara. Our values. Āhurutanga is our backbone. Rangatiratanga is our purpose.
Tō mātou whakatauki: Our guiding proverb. "Āhuru ki te ūkaipō. My home is my safe haven."

The issue.
In Aotearoa New Zealand Māori have a 20% higher cancer incidence rate and are twice as likely to die of cancer than non-Māori.
These differences are intolerable, unfair and preventable.
Our mission is to eliminate these inequities by influencing, researching and educating.
Check out our strategic and operational objectives to see why cancer inequities exist and how we believe they can be addressed.
Our tohu.
The Huia feather in our tohu, or logo, is a symbol of rangatiratanga and mana.
This video explains how the parts of the Huia feather represent our strategic goals.
Support our kaupapa.
Our charity relies on aroha and volunteer hours. Every dollar helps us continue to advocate for better cancer outcomes for whānau Māori.
