“Next Door supports isolated Aotearoa communities by funding secondary education for rangatahi.”
How do we work?
Next Door supports isolated Aotearoa communities by funding secondary education for rangatahi. This involves helping with school fees, transition, and pastoral care. The Trust collaborates with local whānau and communities whom select students, and then are supported through their educational journey and beyond. The aim is to enhance educational access, foster leadership, and expand opportunities for these young individuals. Established in 2016, Next Door is growing in its support of partner communities and is continually strengthening its role in providing culturally appropriate and responsive educational experiences.
