It was a lovely surprise to receive an email from the Foodstuffs South Island Community Trust letting us know we had been awarded $3,000 towards a sculpture and bridge to be installed as part of our Derby St Park Makeover. It was such a surprise, at first we thought it was an administrative error, good on Chris Acklin from New World Westport for supporting our application, we were stoked!
This brings us to having raised $58k towards our goal of $85k and transforming Derby St. Park into a juvenile road safety park and urban orchard. Good on ya Foodstuffs and New World Westport!
