Auckland Airport Community Trust 2017 funding round now open!

Auckland Foundation

Applications are now being accepted for the Auckland Airport Community Trust's 2017 funding round.

Every year, the Trust supports projects that support literacy or life skills in the airport's noise-affected suburbs in South Auckland.

So if you're a charitable organisation or not-for-profit group looking to improve these skills in the communities of Papatoetoe, Whitford, Flat Bush, Manukau Central and Clover Park, as well as parts of Wiri, Ōtara and Māngere, you could be eligible. Or if you know of a worthy organisation or project, please pass this information on.

You can find more information on the Auckland Airport Community Trust's website at www.aucklandairportcommunitytrust.org.nz....

Kia pai from Sharing the Good Stuff

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.

Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.

Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?

Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
