The Trust is very grateful to have recently secured funding of $200,000 from the Otago Community Trust $20,000 from the Trusts Community Foundation and $20,000 from the Chinese Poll Tax Heritage Trust which along with contributions from other community organisations, businesses, individuals and fundraising, have made it possible to progress the project.
