Your tautoko allowed us to share kai with almost 80 whanau from Te Ika a Maui to Te Waka a Maui! last night.

The Serve acknowledges how whanau struggle at these times hence no xmas celebration. It is rescoped as Hari Hararei Hari wa whanau. Celebrating holidays and families. We dont do gifts as time is precious.

Our whanau not only enjoyed a kai-filled night but also took some home. Now, let's spread Hari hararei vibes by checking in on our neighbors. 🤝

If you'd like to contribute—whether it's money, time, or other ways—get in touch at [email protected] or PM us. We're open to creative ways to support The Serve.

Big mihi to our awesome sponsors:

🏉🥪🍦 What a treat! The Chiefs Rugby team served up a delicious and hearty morning tea for our whānau today. 🌟

We were delighted to have the team join us and spend some quality time with our whānau from The Serve. A big mihi to Lōyld and the entire team for their generosity and for making this morning extra special. 🙌

The spread was absolutely mouth-watering! BBQ sammies, ice cream, and brownies - a perfect combination that left everyone feeling satisfied and grateful. 🍔🍨🍫

Not only did we enjoy the scrumptious food, but we also had the opportunity to connect and share stories with the Chiefs players. Their presence and genuine interaction with our whānau warmed our hearts and created lasting memories. 💛

A big thank you to the Chiefs Rugby team for not only showcasing their sporting skills but also for being a part of our community and showing their support. Your presence truly made a difference. 👏

🌟 A Night of Kai and Aroha with SKYCITY! 🌟

We would like to extend a heartfelt thank you to SKYCITY for hosting an unforgettable evening filled with delicious kai and Manaakitanga 🍽️✨

From the moment we arrived, the aroma of the potato and leek soup welcomed us, setting the tone for a remarkable dining experience. The main course, consisting of perfectly roasted vegetables and tender roast beef, was an absolute delight for our taste buds. And let's not forget the grand finale – the bread and butter pudding paired with creamy ice cream, which left us craving for more!

We want to express our gratitude to all the sponsors who made this event possible. Your support has contributed immensely to the success of this memorable evening. 🙏🎉

A special shout-out goes to the amazing team at SKYCITY especially Nathan who went above and beyond to ensure that everyone, including our whanau and volunteers, felt valued and cared for. Your dedication and attention to detail truly made this dining experience extraordinary. 🌟

We cannot thank you all enough for the abundance of kai and aroha that was shared throughout the night. It was a true testament to the power of community and the spirit of generosity.

Once again, a big thank you to SKYCITY for making this evening a truly special one. We are grateful for the memories created and look forward to future events filled with delicious food and wonderful company. 🥰🍽️✨
