The Bay of Plenty Youth Development Trust (BOPYDT) was established in November 2017 to improve the lives of young people in the Tauranga area by delivering inspiring programmes built on our core values:

To help and support the educational, social and physical development of BOP youth;

To provide support and funding for programmes that provide educational, social and physical development;

To provide support for BOP youth who are socially disadvantaged and/or from dysfunctional families;

To provide facilities and other appropriate assistance to BOP youth;

To foster and encourage interests enabling youth to improve self-esteem and behaviour.

With our ongoing success and positive reputation, our programmes rapidly grew and diversified. We now have six programmes,

Our facilitators are highly qualified professionals across all aspects of mental and physical health. Athletes, lawyers, registered psychologists, educators, youth workers and cultural experts support our participants with their unique wealth of knowledge and experience.

Our team also is backed up our strong governance model and Board of Trustees, chosen for their professional skills, networks in the community and a passion to see our local youth succeed. We have excellent administration and processes which ensure we can meet expectations regarding evaluation, monitoring, reporting, quality assurance, and financial management.
