Mā te huruhuru ka rere tēnei manu ki tōnā kōhanga o Te Kotahitanga o Te Ātiawa
Recently Te Kotahitanga o Te Atiawa held a whakatau for a very familiar face to many of our whānau across Taranaki.
Raymond Tuuta, pictured below, (Ngāti Mutunga, Ngāti Tama, Te Atiawa, Ngāti Maru, Taranaki Iwi, Te Āti Haunui-a-Pāpārangi, Ngāti Raukawa, Ngāi Tahu, Ngāi Tai ki Tāmaki, Ngāti Toa) has joined our team from Te Kāhui o Taranaki Iwi and is our new Pouwhakarite Pūtea Tautoko (Grants Manager).
He brings a wealth of experience to Te Kotahitanga and is looking forward to supporting and connecting with our Te Atiawa whānau and hapū.
Raymond is responsible for the management and distribution of nearly $1 million of annual grants on behalf of Te Kotahitanga o Te Atiawa and Te Atiawa Iwi Charitable Trust. This includes our Education Grants, Te Hononga Grants and Hapū Distributions.
This is a newly created community-focused role and we are excited to have Raymond on board.
