More recently we have partnered with additional like-minded organisations, with the aim of expanding the reach of the Nestlé Cook for Life programme to an extended audience within our community:
- Mangere Mountain Education Centre
- The Salvation Army
- Pro Sport – Auckland Rugby
- Graeme Dingle Foundation
- Manurewa High School





Part of our strategy for growth involves a 'a train the trainer' initiative, whereby we train and support like-minded organisations to deliver the Nestlé Cook for Life programme to their community on our behalf. Our first partner for this initiative is Mangere Mountain Education Centre - you can find out more about how we are working together on the video below.
