Triplet No1# Amokura Paewai needs your help to get him on an experience of a lifetime with Outward Bound - Outdoor Education Program.

Hawke's Bay

Our little brother Amokura (featured in the middle of the photo above) has been given the opportunity to go on a 3-week Outward Bound course in July and we're fundraising to help him get there!

After making the local headlines for picking up rubbish on the side of the road on his daily walk to Kura (see article link below), he was selected for the course by the local mayor. While most of his fees have been subsidised, there's still a cost to his attending and he'll need additional gears and supplies for the trip.

Amokura comes from a big family, and as a triplet (out of 8 siblings!), it'll be his first time away from us, including his two triplet brothers who are usually joined at the hip (see video link below!).

When asked what he wanted to do in the future he simply said he just wants to help people. That's his nature as a person. He's caring, friendly and always helpful.

We've set up this Givealittle page to raise funds in order to get him on this trip and help ease the cost on our parents.

As siblings of Amokura, we're truly proud of our brother and the milestones he has accomplished to date. By donating to this page you will be helping us help him achieve yet another.

We want to Thank you all in advance for not only your kind donations but also taking the time to read this.

Ngā Mihi Nui,

Amokura and his Whānau
