WE-HQ Developments, Christchurch’s Youth Hub!

Today, White Elephant is proud to release a double-sided flyer about Christchurch’s Youth Hub – WE-HQ. You can download a copy for yourself here White Elephant – HQ Developments

WE will start distributing these throughout the community in the coming weeks to any person or organisation who has an interest in helping out White Elephant and our plans for development the next few months

Stage 1 of the developments being the development of the core fitout of the space, is budgeted at $160,000.  White Elephant is now calling upon the community and local businesses to get in and support the concept.  We are looking for three basic things:

-          Donations and sponsorships in the form of cash
-          Donations and sponsorships in the form of materials and capital items
-          Volunteer time to assist with the demolition and building stages

More information about the HQ developments can be found here
