About Japan Friends of New Zealand
From Japan we watched with heartbreak as cyclone Gabrielle and the subsequent flooding wreaked devastation across New Zealand. To date, 11 people have lost their lives, approximately 1,500 homes have suffered damage, and several thousand people have been displaced along the east coast of the North Island. Local communities have been greatly impacted and will continue to suffer for years to come with businesses, farms, factories, and vineyards -including those with trading relationships with Japan – having been destroyed.
We want the people of Gisborne and the surrounding areas to know that they are not forgotten, and we are with them. To help in our own small way, the ANZCCJ is proud to support a flood relief fundraiser event for SuperGrans Tairawhiti Trust a longstanding registered charity operating across Gisborne and the East Coast region. The incredible organisation has been providing grass roots support of meals, emergency care and essential resources to people who have been directly displaced. On an ongoing basis, SuperGrans whanau (extended family) mentors will continue to share their knowledge and skills with people in their communities based on the concept of kaitiaki mentoring (the sharing of generational knowledge).
A team of people in Japan with connections to New Zealand have come together to host this event which will include an auction of generously donated gifts and experiences from individuals and businesses across Japan and New Zealand. The individuals involved are connected with the organisations listed in the sponsors and partners section below. All profits from ticket sales and proceeds from the auction will go directly to SuperGrans.
