Big Brothers Big Sisters Auckland recently hosted a successful charity pub quiz, raising approximately $3000 to support tamariki on our waitlist being matched with mentors. The event was a heartwarming testament to community spirit and generosity, bringing together friends, families, and local businesses for an evening of fun and philanthropy.
A special thank you goes out to The Beer Spot, Morningside for kindly hosting the event. Their welcoming atmosphere provided the perfect backdrop for a night of trivia and connection. Additionally, we extend our gratitude to Jo Bros, who kindly offered a 10% profit return from the evening, significantly boosting our fundraising efforts.
A big thank you to Black Sands Brewery for their generous contribution of a discounted keg, allowing more of the profits to go directly to Big Brothers Big Sisters. Their support helped ensure the night was not only enjoyable but also highly successful.
We are also deeply grateful to New World Remuera for their donation of a fantastic raffle prize and to Whitaker’s Chocolate for their delightful spot prizes, which added an extra layer of excitement to the night. Congratulations to Kasey for winning the raffle!
A special shoutout to the team “Look at all the nice dogs” for emerging victorious in the quiz. Their knowledge and teamwork were truly impressive.
The success of this event would not have been possible without the incredible support from all the teams and individuals who participated. Your enthusiasm and generosity are what make these events so special.
With such a successful turnout and the generous funds raised, we are excited to continue running these quizzes in the future. Together, we can make a significant difference in the lives of the children on our waitlist, helping them find the mentors they need.
Thank you once again to everyone who supported this fantastic event. We look forward to seeing you at our next quiz night
