Do a little happy dance as it is Day One of building the Future Home for Hospice Tairawhiti.
Stage one is excavating the site which will take two weeks.
The future Home for Hospice Tairawhiti is for the community and funded by the community. Thank you to all who have got us to this first day of breaking ground. Especially to our largest grant donors; Trust Tairāwhiti (TT), New Zealand Community Trust (NZCT), Eastern & Central Community Trust (ECCT), Sir John Logan Campbell Residuary Trust, and Gisborne Wainui Lions Club Inc.
The new home for Hospice Tairawhiti will allow our services to be extended to help better serve the needs of the Tairawhiti community
Where possible, this multi-million dollar project is using local suppliers and contractors. It is extremely important to us that the money stays in the community that funded the project.
Unfortunately, the building fund was affected by Covid-19 and we still have $310,000 left to raise to complete the building plus the fit-out.
You can support the build by entering our Luxury Mystery Weekend raffle. Tickets are $20 each with a 1 in 500 chance of winning a weekend for two worth $1,200.
