Fundraising

Thanks to those who bought tickets for Summer of Soul, and other generous donations, we have raised over $2000 for Myanmar. The Myanmar Appeal has also been boosted by $10,000 thanks to a generous donation from Matt Wilson of the House of Good Fortune Coffee, Petone. In addition, Matt also supplied small bags of coffee for every person who came to the fundraiser.
