SUPPORTING WHĀNAU IN GAZA

As part of a collective of Indigenous Aotearoa creatives, we donated a garment prize to the Palestine raffle, with 100% of funds going directly to families in Gaza for aid, food, tents, and essential supplies. Every ticket sold contributed to mutual aid, helping provide lifesaving resources for whānau in Gaza.

SUPPORTING OUR FRONTLINE HEROES
A portion of profits from this collection were donated to:

Inspired by the strength and service behind the collection, this koha was our way of giving back to those who dedicate their lives to protecting ours.

PROTECTING AOTEAROA’S COASTLINES

Profits from our Pāua Collection are donated to Sustainable Coastlines, a charity dedicated to restoring and protecting Aotearoa’s waterways and beaches. It only made sense that by using the beautiful designs of pāua, we give back and help clean up the oceans of Aotearoa - home of the pāua.

STRENGTHENING THE MĀORI NURSING WORKFORCE & LAKE ROTOKAKĀ PRESERVATION

Profits were donated to Te Korowai o Nga Ringa Awhina. These funds were used to hire a tutor to help Māori nursing students pass their exams on their second attempt, giving them the extra support needed to succeed on their journey to becoming registered nurses.

In addition to this, a portion of profits were donated to Lake Rotokākahi, funding legal efforts, environmental protection, and the safeguarding of wāhi tapu against the Rotorua Lakes Council’s planned sewage pipe project.
