Temple Restoration Project

$2,375 of $389,000 goal
Given by 15 generous donors in around 5 months

Restoration of a historic Temple as a Wellness Holistic Healing Hub, a place of prayer, peace, solitude, meditation and quiet reflection.

Manawatu / Whanganui

This Temple building is nestled in the peaceful rural Waimarino Valley, Karioi, with a view facing the south of the mountain Ruapehu.

The Vision for the Temple as a house of prayer at place has an open invitation inviting and embracing diverse spiritual faiths, healers and cultures within the Waiouru and Ohakune communities, the wider communities including National and International communities.

The Temple will be available for many events and celebrations, christenings, baptisms, weddings, poetry readings, health and well-being educational gatherings, family gatherings, and wānanga.

We need your help to achieve this vision, we thank you in advance for your kind and generous donation, blessings of Divine Grace ...

Cassandra Reid's involvement (page creator)

I am the project manager entrusted to restore and complete the Temple Restoration Project.

My role is to seek financial funding and sponsors to reach the target required to complete all 5 stages of the project. I have completed the research required for hiring Contractors collated quotes and costs and quantified material costs. I have set up media communications ie: FB and Website as a means of transparency, reporting and generating sponsors support.

I am supported by a small committee set up to help complete this project by November 2017, all systems are in place, we now await the financial aid to get us over the line.
