Donations to the Māori Party

 

Any New Zealand citizen or legally registered New Zealand voter, company or organisation can donate an aggregated total of up to and including $15,000 per calendar year to the Māori Party without having their details publicly disclosed.

However, the Māori Party is required to maintain accurate donor records including your name and address. These details are kept confidentially by Māori Party and used exclusively to meet our requirements under the Electoral Act.

If this donation, by itself or when combined with others made in the current calendar year, exceeds $15,000, your name and the amount you have donated must be publicly disclosed. If you have any questions about these requirements, please email [email protected].

How will your Donation be used by the Māori Party?

We will use your donation to support campaigning for Elections.  Outside of that, we’ll put the money in our general campaign fund for use on other campaigns and wider work.  Donate to support the work of the Māori Party.  Every little bit counts towards making our party a strong voice for tangata whenua.  If you have any questions about your Donations, please make contact using email; [email protected]
