'Grace' - A Chance To Evoke Positive Change

$27,639 donated
Given by 244 generous donors in over a year

A chance to evoke change in honour of the beautiful, intelligent and loving Grace King.

Auckland

Your Life Matters.

In honour of the beautiful, intelligent and loving Grace Ann King.

The name Grace is of Latin origin, meaning "goodness" and "generosity", Grace was a human embodiment of both of these words. She was good, she was generous, and she was so humble in all of her great qualities.

Although Grace is no longer with us in her physical form, we know her spirit and energy will live on, and the positive influence she had on everyone will be a driving force to create change.

We will be creating a new mindfulness and self-help therapeutics centre to honor our amazing Grace. It will be called 'Grace'. This will be our families driving force to evoke positive change and make a tangible difference to the life of others, just as Grace would have wanted. The Grace facilities will be a place of peace, love and self-healing - a place to make a positive difference to the lives of others, to help prevent such a tragic waste of human potential.

The symbol will be Grace's favourite flower, and the rationale behind that; the Sunflower.

Sunflowers symbolise faith and adoration for all that is, and loyalty to something that is much bigger them themselves.

Grace had adoration and loyalty to her loved ones, animals, our planet, and everything that she believed in so wholly. She wanted to make this world a better place, and she will.

Sunflowers also symbolise love and self-respect, which means being authentic and embracing your own individuality.

Christmas With Grace  29 December 2023

We hope that you all had the most wonderful Christmas with your family and friends this year. This was our Second Christmas without Grace...but that did not mean that it was a "Christmas without Grace". We have come a long way with our healing journey and though there is a hole that will never be filled, we have now managed to find our way through the grief.

We have run our first group of healing sessions at Auckland University this year. MJ led this initiative with many students attending to seek new pathways to mindfulness with some Breath Work, meditation and Crystal Bowl Sound Healing. The Renew Clinic at the club will be officially open in 2024 and we have assembled some amazing healers and mindfulness practitioners to assist in this beautiful project.

From the seeds harvested last year from Grace's Sunflowers, I have grown hundreds this year, they have been gifts and out on display for many to see...the ones in the main picture were at the club and in full sight of Grace's old Dorm room and the Auckland University...so many people commented on how beautiful they were and how it made them smile...That's a beautiful thing.

We wish you all a healthy and love filled New Year ahead and we will continue to update this page along with the "With Grace" Facebook page - https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100092392478456

We will continue to help people find peace and mindfulness and send you all our love and light for 2024 and beyond.

The Kings.
