4 A Better City Projects

Our dream is to gather like-minded people from all walks of life and to work together to develop projects that help the people of the Hutt Valley grow to become a mentally, socially, economically and spiritually stronger community than when we started.

Our 4 A Better City projects strive not just to do good, but also build relationships of trust and hope with vulnerable individuals. Through these meaningful connections, we seek to provide resources and support that enable them to pursue a more fulfilling and genuinely successful life.
