Te Awakairangi School Stationery Drive

Welcome to the 2025 Te Awakairangi School Stationery Drive!

Kia ora, everyone! We’re so excited to announce that the 2025 Te Awakairangi School Stationery Drive is officially up and running! 🎉

The Givealittle page is live, and we’ve already received our very first donation—thank you to the wonderful team at Mackay Financial Advice and Services in Lower Hutt for kicking things off in style! Your generosity has set the tone for what we hope will be another incredible year of community support and giving. 💛

For those of you new to the Drive, here’s the scoop: our mission is simple but powerful. We’re working to ensure that no child in our community starts the school year without the tools they need to thrive. From exercise books to glue sticks, backpacks to scissors, every item donated helps lighten the load for families and sets our tamariki up for success from day one.

This year, we’re aiming to surpass last year’s amazing results, where we redistributed over $7,000 worth of stationery to more than 100 students across the Hutt Valley. With your help, we can make an even bigger impact in 2025!

There are so many ways you can get involved:

• Make a financial donation on our Givealittle page—search Te Awakairangi School Stationery Drive.
• Drop off stationery items at any Hutt City Library donation bin.
• Spread the word! Share our Drive with your friends, whānau, and workplaces.

Keep an eye on this space for updates, shout-outs to our incredible supporters, and news as the Drive unfolds.

Thank you, Mackay Financial Advice and Services, and thank you to everyone who’s gearing up to make this year’s Drive the best yet. Together, we’re making a real difference in the lives of our tamariki!

Ngā mihi nui,
The Te Awakairangi School Stationery Drive Team 💛
