On 20th January 2026, A severe storm hit New Zealand, with strong winds causing a large number of trees to fall, affecting the GYNZ Foundation's equine facility and site grounds and creating safety hazards.
In this time of need, a local New Zealand business stepped forward to offer assistance, providing professional tree felling and removal services free of charge as a public welfare gesture. The company helped the foundation clear storm-damaged trees, promptly eliminating on-site safety risks and ensuring the normal use of the equine facility and youth public welfare activity areas. This pro bono support from a local business demonstrated the warm spirit of community mutual aid in New Zealand. GYNZ will continue to engage with local enterprise resources, deepen partnerships within the local public welfare sector, and bring together diverse forces to serve the community and safeguard the operation of public welfare programs.
