    Words cannot describe how thankful we are for the overwhelming support our whanau has received. It has been a quite the month!! Our Givealittle is about to end, combined with our fund raiser in Poneke we have managed to raise 31K in donations!!! This will go towards assisting my whanau and begin the long road to recovery.

    There is still much to do after the clean up, any assistance in the rebuild of our whare would go along way! Please contact me directly at taupuruariki@gmail.com if you are keen!

    Again thank you everyone, nga mihi nui!!

    Brightwell Whanau.
