WCC Youth Hub: A Fresh Space for New Generations

$0 donated

Started around 5 months ago

We’re transforming the unused sports changing rooms alongside our centre in Nawton, Hamilton into a brand-new youth hub!

Nawton, Hamilton

We have now raised over $950,000 to renovate this community space and youth hub, transforming it into a vibrant, fully functional place where local young people can connect, grow, and thrive.

Construction begins in July 2026!

We are now fundraising to equip the space with things like a pool table, table tennis table, chairs, furniture, and other essentials to help bring the hub to life.

A huge thank you to the funders who have committed to supporting this project: Len Reynolds Trust, Lottery Grants Board, WEL Energy Trust, DV Bryant Trust, Gallagher, Trust Waikato, Glenice & John Gallagher Foundation, Lodge Tawhiri, Altrusa International of Hamilton, and Cambridge Drainage and Earthworks and Hamilton Central Rotary.

We also extend our gratitude to Hamilton City Council for generously gifting us this building, and to everyone who has contributed through our Givealittle page or donated directly via our reception donation box.

Join us in shaping the next 50 years and help create a lasting resource for future generations.

On average, fundraisers pay just 2% to use Givealittle. This is one of the lowest effective fees in New Zealand fundraising. We charge a 5% platform fee to cover the cost of running the platform. Because most donors choose to top up their donation to cover this fee, the effective cost paid by fundraisers is about 2%. That means around 98 cents of every dollar raised goes to the cause.
