Moana Pasifika Limited
Financial data as at August 2024. Sourced from Charities Services register.
This entity is registered as a charity but functions as a property, trading, or investment vehicle held by a service-delivering parent (a church, school, hospital, professional association, or similar). Its purpose is to hold or trade assets on the parent's behalf — not to deliver programs to public beneficiaries on its own books. The standard charity rating template (program-vs-administration split, reserve-months, fundraising efficiency) doesn't apply at the subsidiary level — those signals are meaningful at the parent level. A letter grade is withheld here rather than producing a misleading F driven by template-fit. Look up the parent charity by name for its rating.

These structural observations are drawn from public data and are worth considering before a donation. They are not allegations of wrongdoing, and they don’t affect the charity’s letter grade.
- Current annual return overdueThe newest annual return we hold is 25 months old — a more recent return may already be on the Charities Services register
Each signal is a data-driven observation, not a judgement. They fire automatically from the figures filed with Charities Services. A charity can address any of these by filing fuller disclosure or updating its officer register. Methodology: /about/methodology/concern-signals.
