Come along to Te Manawa's Pay it Forward Market!
Te Manawa Community Hub wants to help our communities to help themselves by holding a Pay-it-Forward Market on Saturday 17 October from 9.00am to 12.30pm at Te Manawa.
Te Manawa has invited local not-for-profit community groups to sell donated household items, cakes/baked goods, handmade crafts, second-hand toys, books and plants, to support our local not-for-profit groups to fundraise. It’s your chance to support fundraising efforts by purchasing goods. Bring your cash and bag yourself a bargain!
It’s election day on the 17th of October, so you can cast your vote nearby NorthWest Shopping Centre and then browse the stalls at the Pay-it-Forward market.
Stay tuned to the Te Manawa Facebook page for updates about the Pay-it-Forward market and rain dates. The market will only go ahead under Alert Level One.
