One Good Kiwi Support

Paul Dickson from Oke Charity

Kia ora,

Last week the Oke Charity built its 40th outdoor classroom (OC) here in Auckland and we're well on our way to reaching the epic milestone of fifty OC's by the end of 2024. In order to achieve this, we need your help.

Each month One New Zealand gives a share of $100,000 to 10 different charities. The portion of the $100,000 that Oke Charity will receive depends on how many tokens we are given by our amazing community.

It doesn't cost you anything to support this campaign, just a few minutes. Just head to the One Good Kiwi website (hit the Read More button) and scroll across to find our South Auckland Chief Go-Getter, Alisi, talking about Oke Charity and the work we do with schools.

Click on the green token below Alisi's image and you will see your tokens coming to us with each click :)

If you'd like to support us even more, then you can download the One Good Kiwi app and create an account and you will get 10 tokens to donate to Oke. Hitting the Refer a Friend icon in the app and sharing with friends and family, will earn you even more tokens!

Thank you so much for your support! It will allow us to create more outdoor classrooms like the many we've already built and help Oke to continue Growing Mighty Kids. www.oke.org.nz...

And the 2024 Prospa Local Business Hero is...

Prospa

A huge congratulations to mother and son duo, Mary and Sam Danielson from The Puketapu Hotel.

The votes for all finalists have been tallied and they have been chosen by Neighbourly members across the country as the Prospa Local Business Hero of 2024.

The Puketapu Hotel was nominated by a local called Margaret and the nomination reads:
'On Feb 14, 2023, Cyclone Gabrielle flooded many of the rural areas. Puketapu Hotel went under perhaps half a meter of water. However, immediately Mary Danielson and her son, Sam Danielson, along with their loyal staff pulled it together to cook copious amounts of food that without electricity would have been wasted. Throughout the years many of us have been treated with a pub gathering where we can reconnect and a free meal. At Christmas there was Santa, games, gifts for kids, donated patchwork for adults, an ice cream truck and lots of camaraderie.
This February on the cyclone anniversary, they again pulled out the stops to give hundreds of us a special night. We are all tired of the cyclone cleanup and they understood that it was needed.'

Such a deserving business and team, well done Mary and Sam. And thank you to all those who voted!
