KINDNESS & GIVING ISN'T JUST FOR CHRISTMAS

Paula from Snells Beach & Mahurangi East

Before You Buy A Bunch Of "Stuff" for friends and family this Holiday season (or anytime of the year), try asking them what they really NEED.

Maybe they need help with a utility bill, or a car payment, or the rent.
Maybe they need a kid-free night, and could use a free babysitter.
Maybe they need a night off cooking, and could use a homemade meal.
Maybe they need help with petrol for their car.
Maybe they need a night out with friends.
Maybe they need a cup of coffee, and someone to just listen.
Maybe they need help making the holidays bright for their children.
Maybe they need help in some other way, but they either don't know how to ask for help, or they are embarrassed to ask.

Maybe YOU could be the one to give them what they really need this season, rather than just more "stuff".
