Given by 8 generous donors in 17 days

Support the Waimarino Christmas Appeal by donating to help us bring joy to our neighbours in need this festive season.

Ohakune, Manawatu-Wanganui

Splash into Christmas with us and help bring joy to families across Ohakune, Raetihi and Rangataua.

The Waimarino Christmas Appeal supports local whānau by providing tamariki with a season pass to their local pool, along with fun summer themed gifts like goggles, towels, floaties and dive toys.

This year we want to help our kids get outside, stay active and enjoy the sunshine with their friends and whānau. A pool pass means days filled with laughter, confidence building, water play and making memories that feel like real summer magic.

Every donation helps us create a Christmas filled with warmth, dignity and a whole lot of splashy fun for our community.

Thank you for helping us make this season brighter for local families. ❤️🌞🎄
