  • Recovery Efforts (with MEMES!) update 4!!!

      7 August 2021

    Can you guess all the movie references in this video?

    We appreciate all of your EXTENDED generosity as you have all stuck around for over 6 weeks now listening to us begging for money! Haha. So here is another update on our tornado destroyed enviro startup! A key highlight involves one of our machines are now repaired thanks to you and both machines now live and in operation. As we have just over a week to go in our campaign, we would appreciate your extended generosity in helping us reach our $30K goal through a donation and a share to replace our CNC machine which took one too many dips in the unanticipated paddling pool when our roof was ripped open like a can-opener!

    Ngā mihi nui ki a koe whānau for all your aroha and tautoko.

    Ngā mihi whānau for helping us reach past the 19k milestone towards our tornado recovery efforts of our Givealittle campaign. Thank you! What better way to mark the occasion with a third instalment reaction video to all the donors kind words of support?

  • We are making great progress, and no longer need to raise the full amount!

      20 July 2021

    Kia ora whānau,

    As of this week, we now have power in the factory. You don't know how incredible this is as we were expecting to be out of power for 3 months! This also means that the building insurance company has agreed to cover the temporary ceiling structure too as well as the power reconnection ... which means we now only need to raise $30K to repair our machines and replace our CNC machine which as taken one soak too many.

    This is incredible progress.

    It means we can be back up and running a lot sooner than anticipated.

    And it means we now have 2 weeks to raise just under 12K

    Can you help us by spreading the word across your networks? To facebook groups, organisations and people who care about sustainability!

    Help us keep our dream to ending plastic pollution in Aotearoa alive!

    We are overwhelmed by the response and a massive nga mihi nui ki a koe for everyone's support. Since we went live just over 24 hours ago, we've hit over 2.5K now in both on page and private koha. It's humbling to experience your generosity. No words, just that ... wowee.
