Samoan choir has raised $10,000

A choir from Apia in Samoa performed in Marton last week to raise funds for their village church in Vaiusu.

So far, the choir has raised more than $10,000, said Faiao Ieru of the Marton Social Club.

The 48-strong group stayed with church members and sang at St Francis Xavier Catholic Church on Sunday.

They travelled on to Auckland to perform as well, before heading home.
