Last November 2024, my husband Andrew and I attended the Elegant Kiwi Homes Investors Gala Night, and that evening, something unforgettable was announced.

Ivan and Elizabeth Presquito, a successful Filipino couple and founders of Elegant Kiwi Homes, shared that they were going to build a brand-new home — and donate 100% of the profits to St John (Hato Hone St John).
Yes, all of it.
Why St John Matters to Me
For those unfamiliar, St John is a charity-funded emergency ambulance service that saves lives every day across New Zealand. They respond to accidents, emergencies, and provide life-saving support — all while relying heavily on donations to operate.
This is personal to me — because St John literally saved my life during a serious car accident. So when Ivan and Elizabeth made that announcement, I felt it deeply. I was teary-eyed, grateful, and inspired.
Fast Forward to Today… The Home is Complete 🏡✨
The St John Charity Home Project is now officially on the market:
📍 14 Benrogan Drive, Halswell, Christchurch
🛏 4 Bedrooms | 🛁 2 Bathrooms | 🚗 4 Car Spaces

It’s not just a house — it’s a symbol of hope, generosity, and community impact.
When you’re blessed, you truly can bless more people. 🙏
And this is exactly why we want to encourage our kababayans here in NZ to stay open to opportunities that can help you prosper faster — financially and personally.
From Friendship to Business — Real Stories of Prosperity
One of my personal highlights from this journey is witnessing stories like Jevalyn Basical — whom I met at our Prosper Faster Summit two years ago. From friendship, we became business partners through profit-sharing and co-investing. Just last month, Jev messaged us:
“Guys, we’ve sold our property and I’m depositing your profit shares into your bank accounts.” 🥹💸
It’s real. It’s possible. And you can be part of this too.
