It’s makeover time for Harold’s classroom…can you help?

$1,585 of $2,500 goal
Given by 13 generous donors in 12 days

Life Education Rodney needs your help to give Harold's classroom a cool new look that reflects Aotearoa New Zealand as we know it today.

Auckland

Life Education Rodney's ‘Healthy Harold’ teaches healthy choices and life building skills to the tamariki from Parakai to Whangaparaoa and north to Mangawhai. His mobile classroom is towed for thousands of kilometers across the region every year (thank-you Hiway Stablisers team), and the exterior of the classroom shares what and who we teach.

But Harold’s classroom needs a modern makeover so that it better reflects the beautiful diversity of Aotearoa New Zealand. Harold needs to raise at least $15,000 to install a new design for the outside of the classroom, and he needs your help!

We’re imagining a new design that will incorporate all of what makes New Zealand special; the native flora and fauna; the beauty and spirit of the indigenous Māori culture and the diversity of our people. It’s a design that says we are here for today's Aotearoa New Zealand and remain committed to educating children across the Rodney region in a mana-enhancing way.

We’re asking you to give generously to support Harold’s classroom makeover, so that he can continue to help tamariki and rangatahi make positive choices.

Every dollar you give generates an extra dollar from the amazing team at Withiel Fund and comes with the backing of some of our budget for the trailer from our everyday resourcing.

We look forward to showing you the transformation as early in 2024 as we can achieve it. Donate today!

Success and thanks  19 November 2023

$1585 of the $2500 online target has been donated, nga mihi nui | thanks heaps to everyone! What this means is that The Withiel Fund will donate a matching $1585 and combining that with the offline donation commitment of $5000 and matching $5,000 that means we raised a staggering $13,170 for Harold's new look classroom. We originally targeted $15,000, we will be able to make this happen with the $13,170 so SUCCESS. Ka pai! Special shoutout to Generosity Generator delivered by The Funding Network NZ and the amazing duo of Tim and Anusha. This project will still be a lets think about it some more project for us without this impetus and structured approach. Congrats to everyone in the programme, and phew, let me take a break for a month or so....Merry Chrismas from Harold and his mate in red.
