Kia ora e hoa,
Yesterday a close friend lost their older brother after sustaining an unsurvivable brain injury.

To support this family during such a hard time, I would like to raise some funds to help their family with costs as they plan to take zac back to Ngāmotu New plymouth to rest.
There are a couple options:
1. I have a bunch of left over stock from previous markets. Over the next couple of days I will be posting some of these on to my story for people to respond to.

2. I will be opening some quick commissions. In my bio will be a link to a list of products within a $30 range that you are welcome to pick from. Send an email or a DM to discuss.
100% of profits made will be donated to the whānau.
There is no limit on my end to what you could buy, but you will need to cover any shipping costs, per usual

any contribution will help with
• Collecting Zac from the hospital & preparing him for travel
• A transport-approved coffin & transportation
• Funeral arrangements
• Travel and accommodation cost for immediate family

If you’re interested in helping without investing in amigurumi, I will also link the givealittle in my bio.

Any efforts are immenseley appreciated by the family and myself, thank you!!

a bunch of silly little creatures... made for a purpose! 👇🏻

a couple months ago I had the opportunity to make some little guys for the incredible 💜💜💜 they will go into care packs for rangatahi in mental health facilities. this is a kaupapa very close to my heart, and so it was an absolute privilege to be asked to contribute to the packs!

everyone, please go check out and support Naomi, she is an incredible person and advocate for our young people experiencing mental health issues! 💫⭐

Happy new year, friends!

Take a look at some of the ami's included in my final project if 2025. A flame, polar bear, kea, and leaf. They represent each of the four whānau in my kura, and were given out to some of the kaiako 😁

I think I can say that raulf jean is officially an award winning business...

Last month I was lucky enough to attend the regional finals as both a finalist and award winner! It was a brilliant evening celebrating the entrepreneurs in my community. Exciting to see what other rangatahi are up too, and preview the strong difference our generation of makers will bring.

raulf jean received three awards:
- The Regional Excellence Award for Customer and Market Engagement
- The Rotary Club of Christchurch Sunrise Regional Excellence Award for a Social Enterprise
- The Patrick Williams Memorial Trophy for Social Good

and was privileged to present the Canterbury Regional Distinguished Mentor Award to my very own mentor Jaz from

(last two slides are some personal awards I received at my school prizegiving, but this page is an extension of myself so I thought why not 😘)

my latest batch of ruru for Little Miracles Trust 😛

these fellas are a little different, not as detailed as normal - because I had twenty four hours to make them! (technically). on Tuesday we received an urgent request for FOUR ruru due to the high numbers of 100 day babies in the NICU. luckily it was school holidays so I was able to spend the entire week making the owls - of which my total making hours came to 23.85 hours (1431 minutes) from Tuesday til Sunday evening. hectic! but so worth it to continue supporting local initiatives and whānau

what's your favorite of these four?

As the YES and school year draws to an end, I have decided to pause commissions and workshops until after my NCEA exams.

This is to allow myself some rest after very hectic and fantastic year of running raulf jean.

But..
Never fear, I am not leaving forever!
In the next couple of months be prepared to see me at a couple local events, for either selling or social opportunities.

After exams, I will reopen my commissions for anyone looking to get some last minute koha! You are welcome to reach out during my time off, but I will not be producing any new commissions until after the 28th November. However, ongoing commissions at this time will continue to be fulfilled.
