A tremendous day celebrating the opening of Duke House!

Written By Kim Manunui

Thank you to all who were able to attend our Duke House opening events last Friday, despite being a bit muddy underfoot, it was a truly sunny and joyous occasion.  It was a chance to catch up with friends, supporters and our extended YIT community.  A pre-dawn blessing set the scene for a glorious day, followed in the afternoon by speeches, tours and afternoon tea.

Five years ago, something like Duke House was merely a dream and now it’s a reality.  We couldn’t have done it without you, our loyal and passionate supporters and, of course, Rod Duke.  We are so delighted to have his support and with his incredible donation we are building upon the generosity of current and previous supporters.

Our mission has always been to fund and deliver quality and timely mental health interventions, so no young person in our community would have to reach a point of crisis or even more tragically die by suicide.  With your help, you make this possible.  We thank you for your continued support.

As not everyone was able to attend the official opening we will be hosting another open day at Duke House later in the year.  Keep an eye out for the email.

Thank you again for your ongoing support and generosity.  It’s hard for words to convey our appreciation.. Arohanui

Hi, I’m Kim and I work with a great team to help individuals, as well as small and not so small businesses get their message, product and services to the world using digital media and creating wonderful websites that don’t cost the earth.

I was born in Canada, and grew up around Vancouver and the mountains of British Columbia. My love of pristine environments led me to New Zealand and eventually to the mountains, lakes and rivers of the central North Island which is home. My family’s heritage is here, and it’s from here that Korio traverses the planet.

The digital world is never static and neither are we.

And I say ‘we’ because I work with an awesome group of talented people who I gather together as required to complete a project.  Whatever your business, not-for-profit or individual needs are we gather the best team to get the job done.

Collaboratively we are creative, share sustainable values and work hard for great outcomes because that’s the buzz of satisfaction that drives us.

If you have an audience and market to reach, we can make that happen. Creative design, words that work and smart behind the scenes stuff that cuts through the online noise. We’ll design your website and then build it. We’ll manage the content as well as all your hosting needs. We can handle your online advertising so you get noticed,
and we’ll manage your social media presence so you get the clicks, likes and engagement to grow your business. All within the budget you set, because none of this needs to cost the earth.  And the job doesn’t stop when your website goes live. We are your virtual business partner.
