My 2025 Prospa Local Business Hero nomination
I’m nominating NEWCREATION and My Kiwi Heart Gulf Harbour - This business quietly makes a big difference in the community.
They collect leftover materials from local builders and businesses — things that would usually go to waste — and turn them into creative, hands-on items for families and kids to decorate. And they give them away completely free. No strings attached, just a genuine act of kindness to brighten people’s lives.
On top of that, they create and sell beautiful artwork, using the profits to fund a new mental health initiative that’s focused on making real support more accessible for everyday Kiwis. It’s clear they’re driven by purpose and heart — especially knowing their own son has just come through remission from leukaemia. Their journey has inspired them to give back even more, and it shows in everything they do.
This is exactly the kind of business that deserves to be recognised as a true Local Business Hero.
