e-Tangata

​

E-Tangata is an online Sunday magazine specialising in top quality, highly readable feature stories on Māori and Pasifika personalities, events and issues. It's published by the Mana Trust, an independent charitable organisation focused on helping build a better informed and more inclusive New Zealand society.

The website is largely a labour of love by a part-time team of accomplished writers who want to see, throughout the media, a fairer and more balanced reflection of New Zealanders.

E-Tangata's stories are already being sought by the mainstream media. With your help, there'll be a much bigger flow of those stories, and they'll reach many more readers — some delighted to see their own lives reflected here, and others enjoying being welcome guests in worlds they aren't part of in their everyday lives.

If you decide to offer support, you can do so knowing that your contributions are tax deductible. But more important will be the knowledge that you'll be supporting a worthwhile kaupapa.

Ngā mihi from Tapu, Gary, Stacey, Dale and the rest of the e-Tangata team.

What is PressPatron?

E-Tangata has partnered with PressPatron, a Kiwi crowdfunding platform that makes it easy to support blogs and journalism websites. Please be aware that PressPatron is at the beta stage of its launch, and their team are continuing to make improvements. Their platform is fully functional, but you might notice some minor bugs. They’d love to hear your feedback, and can be contacted here.

Is my payment secure?

Payments made via PressPatron are securely processed using an SSL connection with 256-bit AES encryption. The underlying payment infrastructure is provided by Stripe, a leader in online payments who provides credit card processing for companies such as Facebook, Twitter, Xero, Kickstarter, and others.

All credit card data is encrypted and Stripe maintains strict administrative, technical, and physical procedures to protect your information. More info about Stripe’s security policies can be viewed here. PressPatron does not collect or store your credit card number within their own database.

How can I manage my payment preferences?

Once you have contributed, you will be given the option of creating a PressPatron account to manage your payment preferences. Your supporter dashboard will provide you an overview of your contributions, as well as an interface for editing your payment details. If you already have an account, you can login here.
