Join Us for an Exciting Women’s Clothing Swap Event!
We are thrilled to invite you to our upcoming Kumeu Clothing Swap & Shop event, an initiative aimed at fostering community spirit, sustainability, and giving back. This event is a fantastic opportunity to refresh your wardrobe while contributing to a great cause. Here’s everything you need to know:
Fundraising Goal: $20,000
Our goal for this event is to raise $20,000 to support Parent Aid North West. With your participation and generosity, we believe we can reach and even surpass this target. These funds will go directly towards providing home help visits to young families in need in the North West community.
Silent Auction and Raffle
Our silent auction and raffle are shaping up to be spectacular! Thanks to our generous donors, we have an array of amazing items up for grabs. From exclusive gift baskets and vouchers to unique experiences and high-end products, there’s something for everyone. Be sure to participate and bid on your favourite items on the drop off days and at the event, knowing that all proceeds go towards our fundraising goal.
Huge $5 Clothing Sale
Starting at 12pm, we’ll be opening our doors to the public for a massive $5 Clothing Sale. This is an incredible chance to purchase quality second-hand women’s clothing at unbeatable prices. It’s a win-win: you get to update your wardrobe with fabulous finds while also shopping sustainably.
How You Can Help
• Donate women’s clothing: Bring your gently used women’s clothing, shoes and accessories to one of our drop off days, along with your $30 entry donation.
• Volunteer: We’re always looking for extra hands to help with setup, event management, and cleanup.
• Spread the Word: Share this event with your friends, family, and social networks.
