Help Us Build a Marae for Our Community!

$400 of $100,000 goal
Given by 4 generous donors in around 3 months

Aitutaki Enua Society Inc. is raising funds to build a Marae and community centre in Manurewa.

Manurewa, Auckland

Kia orana! 🌺

We are the Aitutaki Enua Society Inc., a passionate group of families and leaders based in Manurewa, South Auckland. Our dream is to build a Marae and community centre – a place where we can come together to worship, celebrate, learn, and share our culture with future generations.

We’ve already taken a big first step – we’ve secured 2.5 acres of prime land at 437 Porchester Road, Manurewa. This will be the home of our Marae – a sacred space where our people can gather for spiritual, cultural, and community events.

With over 200 dedicated members of all ages involved, we’re united by a common vision: to create a vibrant, welcoming space for the wider South Auckland community.

But we can’t do it alone.

We're reaching out to you – our extended community, whānau, friends and supporters – to help bring this dream to life.

Resource consent has been granted for a 600 sqm community centre.

Your donation will help us:

Host prayers or celebrations for up to 300 individuals under one roof

Begin laying the foundation, as soon as we reach our financial goal

Hold community meetings and workshops to shape and guide the development

No gift is too small – every koha helps!

Whether it’s $5, $50, or simply sharing our cause with others, we are deeply grateful.

Let’s build something beautiful, together.

For our tamariki. For our elders. For the future.

Donations over $500 can be deposited into 12-3022-0380327-04

Kia manuia & meitaki atupaka!
