Going, Going, Gone!

The beautiful owls went under the hammer on Tuesday 29 May at the Haier Big Hoot Auction, raising a spectacular $382,450* for Child Cancer Foundation.

These funds will be used to continue Child Cancer Foundation’s vital work - supporting 1,700 families across New Zealand who are affected by child cancer. This year's highest bidder was Water Blueprint EU with a $86,432 bid.

We are extremely grateful to everyone who won an owl and all those who came along to bid.

We couldn’t have done it without our fantastic event sponsors: Professionals – Lovegrove Realty, who sponsored the auction, and Regional Facilities Auckland, who provided the lovely venue, as well as all of the Haier Big Hoot 2018 sponsors and partners.

A special thank-you goes to our wonderful MC Kerre McIvor, and the superb auctioneers, John Abbott from Professionals – Lovegrove Realty and Richard Thomson from the International Arts Centre.

And a final, huge thank-you to the people of Auckland, who took the owls into their hearts and made the Haier Big Hoot 2018 such a success!
