Fundraising for a community workshop
I’ve checked with the Neighbourly team and this doesn’t violate the t&c’s.
Re-New is at the stage now where we are wanting to create a workshop for upcyclers and creators of sustainable goods, artworks, sculpture, furniture etc. to work out of and sell their creations and re-creations.
But to do that, we need to raise some serious money.
We are aiming for $50,000 (plus $5,000 to cover fees) to rent and fit out a workshop facility, with an office and retail area.
Please, if you haven’t already, take a look at our website Re-new.nz and see what we are about. If you like what we are trying to do, please donate. Any amount, $1 or $1,000 would be put to good use.
Visit givealittle.co.nz... to learn about our plans and to donate.
Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝
In The Post’s opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, we’re “allergic to exuberance.”
We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?
Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.
