NEST – Night Emergency Shelter Trust – update & request
www.thenest.kiwi
We are making headway with the NEST: Phase One (of 3) of the architects’ reports has been completed and now we need to pay various engineers (fire, ventilation etc) to write their reports. The whole lot will then be put together by our amazing resource consent experts at Berry Simons Environmental Law (who are acting for the NEST pro bono!) and submitted to the Council.
Our financials are nearly completed, thanks to our hard-working Trustee Chris Lynch and his wonderful and dedicated team at Lynch & Associates (Accountants) and so we are about to start our PR and fundraising in earnest. We have New Zealander of the Year Finalist 2018, Lisa King on board as a Trustee, which is super exciting as Lisa has a proven track record of expertise in marketing and entrepreneurship – not to mention a huge and kind heart.
Thanks to the generous support of Te Awheronui Trust, we are able to pay the architects and have some left over for some of the reports but not all of them.
We have received a generous donation of $70k from the Lion Foundation but that is set aside for the soft fit-out. We have received generous and overwhelming donations from suppliers all over Auckland.
Things are moving along and we are excited. But right now we need these reports completed.
We are so close to making a huge difference. Please help us to get there!
