Buller/West REAPs (Rural Education Activities Programme)

Buller/West REAPs are acting in the capacity of Tindall Foundation Funding Manager in the West Coast region, supporting the Foundation’s goals of building effective relationships with communities in the Programme Area, Supporting Families and Social Services.

Each REAP is a community-based flexible resource, funding a range of educational and community-based programmes. REAPs assistance is based on avoiding duplication of services, adding value to opportunities that already exist and providing resources where they do not.

REAP is based on the belief that local communities are best able to identify and direct resources to meet their own special needs. Buller/West REAPs work with a variety of groups, schools, agencies, funders and individuals in co-operative local initiatives.

This multifaceted approach promotes capacity building and self-reliance and helps communities unlock and mobilise unrealised resources, skills and assets to build strong and vibrant communities.
