FUNDRAISER FOR CYCLONE GABRIELLE

Hawke’s Bay has experienced widespread devastation following Cyclone Gabrielle. The affects on our people, shelter, livelihoods and land is far reaching.

Two artists from Hawke’s Bay Martin Poppelwell and Dick Frizzell have gifted two limited edition screenprints from their collaboration ‘The Sun is in the Window’.

100% of the proceeds will be donated. There are many worthy groups accepting donations, we have decided to donate to a group we have worked with before, the Hawke’s Bay Foundation, a registered charitable trust (CC28009). You can read about them here. Their Foundation Executive Officer Amy Bowkett experienced the cyclone in a very direct way, you can read her story here
