Tall Poppy Real Estate’s national HQ office, based in Kāpiti, organised a golf fundraising day in March, which saw more than 70 people play at Waikanae Golf course, raising $10,000 for KYS.
KYS has 5600 young people enrolled - 76% of the total youth population (aged 10 - 25 years) in Kāpiti. Raechel Osborne, KYS CEO, says the money raised will go towards its Youth Rep Programme, which trains young people from Kāpiti, Paraparaumu and Ōtaki Colleges to work with peers in their schools and employs them to work 2 hours per week.
