Help Graham and Liz Gregory convert their containers into offices for trust staff, volunteers and Gloriavale leavers. It's an urgent appeal!
Canterbury
Hi friends and supporters! Many of you know that we, Graham and Liz, host the Gloriavale Leavers' Support Trust out of our house and a small portable office. But we need a dedicated space for this work! It's been 10 years since we got involved, and there are many more years ahead.
So we've come up with a plan and we'd love your help. We have two shipping containers on our Timaru property, and have got consents in progress to transform them into offices and meeting room which the trust, staff, volunteers and leavers can use. Yay!
We are personally funding the construction, but have financial constraints. We have a charitable team of labourers from MMM (Mobile Maintenance Ministry) arriving mid Nov to complete the project...But we need to find all the materials and finances before then.
We have been approaching various businesses and are grateful for the items we have received so far. But some parts of this project require cold, hard cash! (eg THOUSANDS in planning and consent fees, spray foam and more).
So we are asking our friends and supporters to dig into their pockets to support us in this incredible work. Every bit counts.
The Gloriavale Leavers' Support Trust is endorsing this project, but is not funding it (apart from some fit-out items that might be required). The Trust will also be ensuring there is financial full transparency.
Find out more here:
All funds will be directed to the building project (materials & planning costs, or costs already incurred). The containers were deliberately purchased with this work in mind. Left-over funds will be go to the Gloriavale Leavers' Trust.
Thanks! 19 October 2023
Due to great support with products donations and private donations we have lowered the cash goal required. Thanks for the support!!
Thanks so much. Bless you for your kindness!
