Make a Difference for Children of People in Prision

What truly makes mentoring with us special is the positive impact on you and your mentee. Many of our mentors describe their experience as deeply fulfilling - not just because they see their mentee grow but because they feel a sense of community, appreciation, and purpose. Right now, there are tamariki and rangitahi (young people) waiting to be matched with a mentor, eager to meet someone like you who will support them, laugh with them and explore new experiences together. As a mentor, your role is simple yet powerful: be a consistent, trusted adult in their life and spend time together doing activities you both enjoy! If you've ever thought about becoming a mentor, now is the time. You don't need to have all the answers - you just need to be present, kind, and willing to share a little of your time. We believe every child in Aotearoa deserves to stride into the future with confidence, no matter their circumstances. Pillars Ka Pou Whakahou is a charity that exists to support the tamariki with a parent in prison to create positive futures for themselves.
