We had a lovely visit to cooks beach where we met up with the amazing Adele at cooks beach dune care. 🌿🌊

Her rich knowledge of Māori history, animals, dunes and ecosystems were so inspiring and thought provoking. You are a wonderful teacher and a huge asset to the community. Thank you!

Mā te wā!!! 🥰

We are incredibly grateful to the amazing team at Smitty's Sports Bar & Grill Whitianga who organise and run the Friday Night Meat Raffles every single week, then generously donate the proceeds to Te Tiihi Nui Trust.
Thanks to their ongoing commitment, an incredible $5,000 has been raised so far this year to support the young people in our programme.
These funds help keep our wheels turning and ensure Our Place Where We All Belong continues to thrive, providing opportunities, friendships, and a sense of belonging for the amazing young people we support.
Thank you to everyone at Smitty's and to every person who has bought a raffle ticket. Your generosity is making a real and lasting difference 💙

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 💛

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 💙
