M.E.F. Policy

M.E.F. Policy

While as yet, there has been no firm policy decided upon by the Foundation trustees, there is the general feeling that the function of the Foundation will be to provide the economic balance in a Maori family, increasing bursary and scholarship income so that there need be no expense on the part of the family in keeping pupils at school.

The Foundation was established specifically to increase support for present bursary and scholarship schemes and in a manner similar to Heritage to organise support both moral and spiritual that a Maori scholar will need, especially at University level.

An equally important function of the Foundation is to combat parental ignorance and apathy, prejudice against Maoris by employers and the Europeans' ignorance of Maori culture and personality.
