π Appreciation Post π
Today marks 3 months since we opened the doors to the Bloom Pukekohe Op Shop, and we want to send out a HUGE ngΔ mihi nui β thank you to everyone who has been part of this wild ride! π
It all began with the trust and confidence IHC New Zealand placed in Bloom Pukekohe, giving us the opportunity to take over the Counties IHC Op Shop. We're proud to continue empowering individuals with intellectual disabilities to grow, learn, and live fulfilling lives in our community.
A heartfelt shoutout to Furniture Clearance Centre and the Franklin Local Board for helping us secure our amazing store location β and for your ongoing support. π
To the awesome crews at Fortitude and Tilyards β thank you for making our big move smooth and seamless. ππͺ
We are also incredibly grateful to Lotto NZ, the NZ Lottery Grants Board and Foundation North for their continued support β your contributions help make this all possible. π
A huge thank you to our dedicated team and board, whose hard work and vision drive everything we do. And to our incredible volunteers who show up each day with passion and purpose. We appreciate each and every one of you.β€οΈ
Finally, to our wonderful community β your generosity, kindness, and encouragement have been nothing short of inspiring. From donations and shopping visits to kind words and shared stories, you've made this journey so special.
Hereβs to many more months of making a blooming difference, together. π«
