Papa Charles Hui 2016 - Fundraising
Link back to the facebook event page
Acknowledgement
In appreciation to everyone who has supported our fundraiser for Papa Charles memorial. Every contribution is another step toward reaching our goal, and in doing it together, will make our hui that much more rewarding.
Note - The cost of the headstone and installation is $1800. The deposit to get the headstone process going is $200 and has now been paid directly to the stonemason (donated). This leaves our goal now as $1600.
Update 23 Jul 2016 - The cost of Papa Charles headstone is now covered. Thanks to everyone who has contributed. Some whanau I must say dug very deep into their hearts, minds and pockets. We certainly have some very generous whanau among us.
Update 2 Aug 2016 - The headstone was fully paid for yesterday (receipts below) and everything is on track. We did however discover the cost of the headstone was a little less than we had budgeted for. This has left us with a fundraising surplus (currently $223.52 ).
If anyone or any groups would still like to contribute, the opportunity is still there to help. Any further funds received will help with the history trail bus/transportation.
Thank you

** When making koha toward the headstone, please put your name in as reference so that it will be acknowledged. If you would like to make an anonymous koha, then your reference will be "anon". All other donors will be acknowledged but the amount will not. So whether someone is donating $1 or $100, they will be acknowledged equally. If you would like your koha acknowledged that the reference doesn't allow, please email me with the details.
We recommend that you use internet banking when making koha because your reference details will be as you wish and the transaction incurs no bank charges. If you make koha over the counter, please check your receipt to ensure your reference details are correct.
We try to check the account on a regular basis, however your koha may still take a day or few to register. If after a few days your koha doesn't register here, please contact me.
