Warkworth, New Zealand – Last Friday, HouGarden had the honor of supporting Barfoot & Thompson Warkworth at their Annual Warkworth Golf Event, an outstanding fundraising initiative benefiting Starship Children’s Hospital. The event, organized with precision and passion, was a resounding success, thanks to the exceptional efforts of the Barfoot & Thompson team — especially Sara-Jayne Kingston, whose leadership played a pivotal role in bringing it all together.
The day was filled with fun, friendly competition, and a shared commitment to a great cause. The highlight of the event was the auction, which raised substantial funds for Starship Children’s Hospital. These funds will directly support the hospital’s critical work in providing life-saving medical care and equipment to children in need across New Zealand.
“It’s always a privilege to be part of an event that makes a real difference in people’s lives,” said Dan Keenan, HouGarden’s representative at the event. “The generosity and spirit of the Warkworth community were truly inspiring, and we’re already looking forward to next year’s event.”
HouGarden’s involvement in this event reinforces our commitment to giving back to the community and supporting organizations that make a positive impact on the lives of children and families in New Zealand.
A heartfelt thank you to everyone who contributed to making this year’s event a success — from the participants and sponsors to the Barfoot & Thompson Warkworth team. Together, we’re helping to create a brighter future for tamariki across New Zealand.
