A leg up on a New Hip - Jono Campbell

For over 30 years, Jono Campbell has dedicated himself to supporting rangatahi and whānau through Te Ora Hou Ōtautahi. As General Manager for 20 years, and in his years before that, Jono has been there, uplifting countless young lives and leading with humility and compassion.

Now, Jono is facing his own struggle, and he needs our help!

Jono’s hip replacement surgery, initially achievable, came at a cost between $30,000–$50,000, but rising expenses continue to keep moving the goalposts. This surgery is essential, providing relief from the chronic pain that has impacted his life and will restore his mobility, enabling him to continue the work he loves.

For those who know him, you’ll understand that asking for support is the last thing Jono would ever do. He’s always been the one lifting others up. Now, it’s our chance to give back. Every dollar raised will go directly toward covering the cost of Jono’s surgery, recovery, and rehabilitation, helping him return to the community he has served so selflessly.

Let’s come together and support Jono in his healing journey, so he can keep doing what he’s always done: giving his all to the lives of others.
