Aotearoa Resettled Community Coalition (ARCC) community support
Kia ora e te whānau. Aotearoa Resettled Community Coalition (ARCC, www.arcc.org.nz...) is supporting a Syrian-New Zealander community member from our forced migrant background community. She has recently relocated to Auckland and today is moving with her 5 children from emergency housing to a house provided by Kainga Ora. The family has basic items such as towels and cutlery, but no essential furniture items such as beds, a fridge, washing machine, sofa, tables, chairs etc. Should you have any such items no longer needed but in reasonable condition that you would be happy to donate to ARCC to support this family, please contact ARCC (james@arcc.org.nz or 09 846 0110 - calls from 9am to 5.30pm). Any items ideally needed this week to support the family with their move.

Some Choice News!
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!
