In order to ‘kick-start’ the building fund for the building of a church and community centre right in the heart of Cambridge , Murray and Michelle Smith decided to give away their home valued at over $1 million as a prize in a sales promotion.  The promotion raised over $1.2MILLION towards the construction!

Congratulations to Warwick Hutchinson of Auckland who was the happy winner of their beautiful Lake Karapiro home.

Because they're so passionate about their community they're taking a piece of NZ to the world and want you to be a part of it. www.apieceofnz.co.nz is a not-for-profit brand that they have established to showcase to the world how fantastic New Zealand is and why New Zealand communities are a great place to live and work.  All profits from the sale of apieceofnz merchandise are channelled directly back into New Zealand and overseas community projects, starting with the church and community centre in Cambridge. 

With “Synergy” there’s always a number of projects that are in various stages of planning and implementation...

A low frequency community radio station is being planned from a base in Cambridge.  Synergy (Cambridge) Trust sees this as a great chance to foster community goodwill and to nurture local pride and morale.

Cambridge RADIO ZONE will operate as a self-funding venture and will feature many distinctives with local news and views, a chance to showcase emerging talent while incorporating programming that brings a lift and a positive message of hope.

Using a “music, feature programme , talk-back format” it will seek local advertising support to make it viable and sustainable.  It’s an exciting venture and something to keep an ear out for on the dial!
