MATE MA’A TONGA 🇹🇴
SPINNING WHEEL and DONATION Drive!
We would like to thank everyone in our community that has reached out to check on the wellbeing of our family in Tonga following the recent Volcanic eruption and Tsunami. We are so pleased to report they are safe!
There is now a need for ongoing relief as the people of Tonga rebuild thier communities and restore basic necessities such as clean water etc.
HOW CAN WE HELP?!….
We’ve become aware of a Christchurch based initiative that will be facilitating the filling and freighting of shipping containers to Tonga.
This will enable local Tongan families to send much needed items of assistance directly to thier loved ones in Tonga, as well as delivering relief items to local community organizations in Tonga that are distributing essentials to those who have been left homeless and do not receive parcels from family.
We would like to help raise awareness and rally around this effort, via an in club collection drive for relief donations from Monday 31st Jan-Thursday 3rd Feb (during staffed hours).
We will also be donating ALL JOINING FEES from sign ups throughout this week.
If you’d like to help, donations of the following items are needed:
•Bottled Water.
•Non perishable food items: Milk powder,
Flour, Salt, Sugar, Rice, Cereal, Tinned meat& Fish, Tea/Coffee/Milo etc.
•Sanitary items:
Female products, Bathroom hygiene items, Nappies, Toilet paper, detergent etc.
•Bath towels, Tea towels, cleaning products.
•School stationary.
We invite you to bring in any of the above items with you when you come to the gym for your workout.
In exchange for your kind donations; the crew will be available to provide you with some spontaneous work out inspo… we’ll have the mighty ‘Mate Ma’a Tonga’ wheel in club to help you Spin a challenge into your daily workout 🔥
Please share this to help us spread the word!
In advance; Malo Aupito.
Thanks for your support.
CHUR ❤️
