A HUGE thank you to the incredible Molly Burke and her amazing team at Forbidden Pizza for opening your doors to our Te Tiihi Nui crew 🍕❤️
Our young adults had the absolute BEST time creating their own delicious pizza masterpieces and when we say masterpieces, we mean it! These creations were so epic they were far too big to eat in one sitting… which meant lucky leftovers for later!
There were big smiles, proud chefs, very full bellies and even fuller hearts. Experiences like this mean the world to our crew and their families.
If you’re feeling hungry (or just need a reason to treat yourself), Forbidden Pizza will most definitely sort that out! Go support these local legends. They truly are good sorts.
Thank you Molly and team. You’re absolute gems in our community 💛

💛 THANK YOU 💛

A huge thank you to everyone who supported the recent raffle held at Smitty’s in aid of Te Tiihi Nui Trust. Your generosity and support mean more to us than we can put into words.
Every ticket purchased helps us continue the work we do in our community, and we are incredibly grateful to each and every one of you for getting in behind us.
A big congratulations to Barry on winning the packed amazing chilli bin! We hope you enjoy it! 🍻😄
We’d also like to thank Super Liquor Whitianga, who helped make this possible, and of course Smitty's Sports Bar & Grill Whitianga for choosing to support our Trust through this raffle.
From all of us at Te Tiihi Nui Trust, thank you for standing with us and supporting what we do 💛

The BIGGEST thank you must go to the incredible Mercury Bay Lions!

You gave up your time, energy and effort to sell raffle tickets, organise the draw and make this fundraiser happen. Because of you, an amazing $2,000 has been donated to Te Tiihi Nui Trust, helping us continue the work we do in our community.

Thank you to everyone who bought a raffle ticket – your support directly strengthens the Trust and allows it to keep doing what it does best - supporting young adults in our community with additional needs.

Huge thanks as well to New World Whitianga for hosting the raffle sales and sausage sizzle, and to Whiti City Markets and Whitianga Hair for your support.

From Kieran, Fleur, Paul and all of us at Te Tiihi Nui Trust – thank you for backing the Trust and showing such strong community spirit 💙

✨ Our Hearts Are Full ! Thank You, Whitianga! ✨

We’re still buzzing from Sunday and just want to say the biggest thank you to every single one of you who made Runway With Heart such an incredible success.

To everyone who bought tickets, cheered our young adults on, donated, volunteered, modelled, supported, or simply turned up with love, you made this day what it was.

A special shout-out to Vaughan, whose amazing photos captured the joy, the pride, the nerves, the laughter, and the pure positivity of the day. Seeing those images feels like reliving the magic all over again. ❤️📸

When we set our fundraising goal at $10,000, it felt huge… maybe even a little impossible.
But with your unbelievable generosity and support, you didn’t just help us reach it, you blasted it out of the water. We’re now at $15,000!
This incredible amount will help us turn our lights on, pay rent, and cover many of the bills that quietly stack up behind the scenes. The ones that allow us to keep showing up for our young adults, giving them a space to belong, grow, connect and thrive.
From the bottom of our hearts, thank you, team.

Whitianga, you’ve wrapped us in love and we are so grateful. 💛✨

What an incredible day! 💖✨ Our hearts are absolutely full after Runway With Heart.

A massive THANK YOU to everyone who supported our event, our wonderful ticket holders, our brave and beautiful models who stepped out with so much courage, Lynda Grant for her makeup magic, and Gina Mason for her stunning hair artistry.

To everyone who came along, bought tickets, cheered, clapped, bid, and enjoyed the afternoon (with a little help from the always-fantastic Philip Hart!) Thank you.

And to our incredible volunteers… you were absolute magic. We couldn’t have done this without you.

To the amazing local businesses who contributed so generously to our auctions and raffles… wow. We felt the aroha in a big way. 🌸🥰

A huge shout-out as well to the amazing team at Basker for hosting us so warmly in their beautiful space. We are so grateful for your generosity and support.

From all of us at Te Tiihi Nui Trust… THANK YOU. We truly felt the love on Sunday, and we are so grateful for this incredible community. ❤️🫶

🌟 A Massive Thank You to Indian Aromas! 🌟

Today our Te Tiihi Nui Trust crew were treated to the most beautiful birthday lunch in honour of the lovely Caroline — and Indian Aromas went above and beyond.
Not only did they host us with their usual incredible food and kindness… they picked up the whole bill! 🤯💛
Such an unexpected and generous gesture — we were blown away.
To the team at Indian Aromas Restaurant: thank you for your warmth, your hospitality, and your huge hearts. We absolutely love this place!
And of course… Happy Birthday, Caroline! 🎉
What a special way to celebrate.
Community supporting community — this is what it’s all about. 💛✨
