💙 Tautoko i te rangatahi, tautoko i te whanau 💙

Yesterday we were proud to tautoko Sandy and his whanau at Pukenui Wharf, supporting his small drink business and celebrating rangatahi entrepreneurship.

Behind this moment is a powerful whanau journey - one of resilience, perseverance, and unconditional aroha. Sandy’s māmā shared how, from a very young age, he has faced challenges with strength and courage, supported every step of the way by whanau who believe deeply in his potential and his “super powers”.

It’s awesome to see our young people stepping out with confidence, creativity, and mana - and to stand alongside whanau and community who uplift and encourage rangatahi to thrive.

Ngā mihi nui to Sandy and his whanau, and to Luke and the Kea Kids team for helping shine a light on this kaupapa and celebrating the strengths of our rangatahi 💪✨
