Festival of Magic

Here at the BCC we have a strong relationship with the Manawatu community, and we endeavor to strengthen and maintain this relationship as we grow as an organization. We are proud of how far we have come, and what we have achieved.  BCC is all about realising innovation to create wealth: while economic outcomes for the Manawatu are one of our key drivers we know that positive social outcomes can benefit the community just as much.

Every year we aim to do something special for the community, and this year we have decided to bring ‘magic’ to the lives of some very special and deserving children…

The World Festival of Magic is a fantastic show that has been touring Australia and New Zealand for 22 years, in 55 cities. It is the longest running international magic show of its kind, and contains 90 minutes of action packed, magical family fun.

Through our local Lions Club, we are sponsoring 10 children who are dealing with cancer to attend the Festival of Magic show when it comes to Palmerston North  on the 21st of November. We hope to bring smiles and excitement to the lives of these children who are facing illness, physical disability, or severe hardship on a day to day basis.

If we are able to make a small difference to the lives of these 10 very special children, and help them keep fighting towards a healthy and strong future, then that's money very well spent!
