Te Toi Mahana is a brand that aims to provide homes that suit whānau (family) across Pōneke (Wellington), in the right place to support their wellbeing. Established as a Charitable Trust, Te Toi Mahana took over housing services from Wellington City Council, which has been providing social housing since the 1950s. As a registered Community Housing Provider (CHP), Te Toi Mahana is committed to continuously improving the quality and sustainability of homes and communities.

They also strive to grow the provision of housing to meet the needs of the community and are dedicated to affordable living. The brand's name was gifted by their Council's Tākai Here partners, symbolizing the partnership, trust, and manaatikanga (support) between Te Toi Mahana and their resident whānau. The brand's vision is for whānau to have homes that suit them and support their wellbeing, while their principles are centered around Whakamana (empowerment), Mauri (life force), Tikanga (customs), and Rangatiratanga (self-determination)
