AN ambitious target to make $140,000 in 140 days has been set to raise money for the Standing Tall in Hamilton mentoring program, to continue its successful youth focussed support.

Standing Tall in Hamilton is an award-winning, volunteer-based program, that is heavily reliant on the hard work and dedication of many locals, groups and organisations, with 30 children presently mentored and another 40 referrals on the waiting list.
