Mahu Community Trading Post plans to be back in business on Wednesday, September 30 following a seven-week hiatus due to lockdown.
The Auckland lockdown announced on August 11 came on the heels of the Trading Post celebrating its second birthday.
To mark the occasion, it donated $34,000 to local community causes.
The grateful recipients were Warkworth Christian Foodlink ($10,000), Homebuilders Family Support Services ($10,000), Mahurangi Rugby Club ($10,000) and a Mahurangi College arts project for students with special needs ($4000).
The big giveaway brought the grand total donated by the Trading Post to local community causes to $210,250.
