Doing a stash cleanout? We'll take your yarn!
I belong to a group called Crafting Threads of Aroha www.craftingthreadsofaroha.nz... Our volunteers knit, crochet and sew for many good causes, including Birthright, Wellington Hospital, Foster Hope, Refuge, Plunket to name a few. We love to receive your handmade donations, but we also have volunteers who love taking donated wool and making it into beautiful hats, slipper, vests, cardis and blankets. We have drop-off locations around the region www.craftingthreadsofaroha.nz...drop-off-points . And of course, we value financial donations which are used to buy the expensive but warm 4ply merino kiwi baby clothes.

One proposed solution? Small levies on industries that profit from financial hardship — like banks, casinos, and similar companies.
So we want to hear what you think:
Should the government ask these industries to contribute?
-
59.3% Yes, supporting people is important!
-
25.3% No, individuals should take responsibility
-
15.4% ... It is complicated
