Testimonials

  • My home is an extension to my kainga tuturu and it means everything to me and my sons to have somewhere they can call their own.  Like their whakapapa (genealogy), it is their foundation and they feel connected. It also provides me with peace of mind that I have done my utmost best for my sons and that if anything happens, no matter what, they have a home to call their own – thank you New Zealand Housing Foundation.
