Our Rakatahi Pou

These are the pou that are the founding principles of our Kaupapa.
Our Rakatahi Kaupapa is founded on these basic principles – how and why we do what we do!

Haumaru / Safety

This is a safe space to learn. You can trust Whai Rawa to provide solid, reliable advice around money basics.

Whakatītina / Reassurance

We will help you to understand what you need to be active and take part in the process. We want to help you get ahead!

Pūahoaho / Clarify

We can’t give you financial advice, but we can help with the information you need to make your own good decisions.

Whakaute / Respect

We understand how hard it is to be your age and overwhelmed by information. We want to help – no question is too silly.

Whakahihiko / Motivation

Action is the key, don’t sit idly by and watch the days pass. Be active in your life and the decisions you make.

Whakamana / Empowerment

Seeing your actions create change will give you further confidence you’re on the right path and will encourage more growth and development.
