Charity - Community Support

 

Orakei Marina Trust participates in various initiatives to encourage growth and development of the local community.

A key initiative that aims to give students from low decile schools and families a development opportunity of a lifetime, is our Spirit of Adventure Scholarship programme. Over the years we have had many scholarship recipients take part in a 10-day youth development programme, aboard the Spirit of Adventure. The voyage is aimed at students aged 15- 18 years old, and is a programme that helps develop life skills and experience that is invaluable to our youth.

Our mission in supporting the Spirit of Adventure Trust is to enable deserving students who face financial boundaries, to take part in an opportunity that would otherwise be inaccessible to them. We strive to award 4 scholarships per year.

Further to this, our Orakei Management Trust team are actively involved in providing support to the local sailing/boating community where possible.

Community support:

  • We provide berths for Coastguard NZ where possible
  • We provide support to local sailing clubs
  • We provide security to the public using The Landing area
  • We have made monetary donations to local primary schools and sea scouts
