Kia ora Koutou !

Another momentous mihi too everyone who supported our "Fundraiser for Jytique" kaupapa, especially our Ringa Toi who kindly donated their beautiful Mahi toi. Not only did you all contribute massively to the financial burden of this Whānau while Jytique recovers in hospital but you helped bring much needed joy and hope to all those affected by this young Warriors journey. If Jytique was here he would love to thank you all individually, but in place of that please accept our deepest and most sincere gratitude 👌🏾
