On Saturday May 27, our team of six individuals courageously followed through on their decision to shave their hair, marking an unforgettable event filled with joy and community celebration. Surrounded by a large gathering of family, friends, and supporters, the six participants triumphantly bid farewell to their locks. The success of the day left a lasting impression on all of us.

From the beginning, our mission has been to show Tate's family that they are not alone. We stand by their side, providing unwavering support, while also striving to discover more effective treatments that can save lives. Furthermore, we are dedicated to ensuring that individuals with cancer receive the vital support they need to navigate through their challenging journey.

We extend our heartfelt gratitude to the following generous supporters and donors: The Warehouse Papamoa, Lantern Restaurant, Papa Mo's, Freeport with Cleaver & Co, Pap House, Rain Bar, The Good Home, My Ride Mt Maunganui, Tivoli Cinema Papamoa, Pacifica Home & Garden, Leanne Hopkins Art, and all those who contributed to the online campaign. Your support means the world to us.

We sincerely thank you for your commitment and support. Although our initial target was $10,000, we are delighted to announce that we expect to raise around $16,000 for this incredibly worthy cause. We will finalize the total amount over the next week or two. This remarkable achievement is a testament to our collective efforts.
