warriors.kiwi have hit a try with a successful luncheon supporting Foundation and I Am Hope.

The event, co-hosted by I Am Hope and the NZ Warriors, aimed to tackle mental and physical wellbeing for the youth, scoring big donations to keep both charities in the game.

Masterfully led by Laura McGoldrick, the luncheon featured a winning discussion on mental health and wellbeing.

Former Warrior Anthony Gelling steered the conversation with current players Dylan Walker, Tohu Harris, Marcelo Montoya, and Jazz Tevaga sharing their own stories in a try-scoring segment that resonated with the audience.

I Am Hope founder Mike King, the auctioneer extraordinaire, drove the fundraising efforts with his classic enthusiasm, kicking goals for a good cause.

The event even rallied support for boxing champion Mea Motu, showing the community's commitment to backing local talent.

Warriors Community Foundation CEO Lincoln Jefferson delivered a heartfelt speech, thanking everyone for getting in the scrum to support a worthy cause.
