Porirua Funders Expo returns
Funders and support agencies will be on hand next month to help local groups, as the annual Porirua Funders Expo is held again at Pātaka.
The event, running 11am-8pm on Thursday 5 October, is for organisations looking for funds to support community-focused projects around sports, the arts, supporting youth, the environment, or other areas that provide local benefit.
There will be about a dozen funders and support agencies available to chat to face-to-face at the event.
The event will run slightly differently this year, with groups able to drop-in between 11am-3pm or later from 5-8pm to chat with funders and agencies.
Funders confirmed for the day include Porirua City Council, Department of Internal Affairs, Nuku Ora, Creative New Zealand and the Ministry for Pacific Peoples.

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.
Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.
Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?
Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
