A short history of Tabitha NZ

Starting out
In the Spring and Summer of 2003, students at Auckland International College were introduced to the Tabitha Organization and decided to form their own support group to raise funds and eventually plan a house-building trip. The students were from China, Korea, Pakistan, New Zealand and Japan. They are pictured here with teachers Richard Jones, Julie-Anna Child and Maggie Hannan:

original group

The group was highly motivated and very successful, raising sufficient funds to build 9 houses as well as contribute the the wells and other programs.
