Maia Mariner — Founder Lazy Sneakers
At the age of 12, Maia set up the Lazy Sneakers charity to rehome used sneakers to children in need.

Hiria Te Rangi — Kaiwhakahaere (CEO) Whare Hauora
Hiria loves her community and loves technology, so leading Whare Hauora was a natural role for her.
Whare Hauora goes into Marae, community centres and schools to teach low-income families about Whare Sensors, how to build them and how they can help whanau make informed decisions about how their home affects their health.
With 20 years in technical and business roles spanning open data, open source, digital technologies and infrastructure, Hiria relishes her role and the difference Wharehauora can make in Aotearoa

Scam Alert: Bank cold calls
ASB is warning customers about reports of cold calls from scammers claiming to be from ASB. These scammers are trying to obtain personal information, including usernames, dates of birth, and verification codes sent to your mobile phone.
🛡️ The "Caller Check" Test
If you get a call from someone claiming to be from ASB and you’re unsure, just ask them for a Caller Check. You will then be able to verify the call through the app.
Remember, banks will:
❌ Never ask for your banking passwords, PINs, or verification codes
❌ Never need to know your full credit card number – especially the CVC
❌ Never ask you to download software or remotely access your device
❌ Never ask you to purchase gift cards or transfer funds.
If you have received a phone call and think your account has been compromised, call ASB on 0800 ASB FRAUD (0800 272 372), or visit your local branch.
