any cash jobs in the area of cafe work, caregiving and cleaning?
Hi all
I am looking this on behalf of a lady I met at Takapuna who is in a very difficult situation financially. WINZ is giving her very little weekly support. She needs some more finances to pay for her expenses and her borther's last rites who died unexpectedly.
She is a Chef by trade and has also done care giving work and is also open for cleaning work.
Since past 6 weeks or more, she stands every week on sunday in takapuna, does some singing and relies on kind people who donate her some money, food etc.
If anyone knows of any such work opportunities, please PM me. Ideally in takapuna or close by areas, as she lives there and relies on bus as transport.
Many thanks 🙏
Poll: Should the government levy industries that contribute to financial hardship?
As reported in the Post, there’s a $30 million funding gap in financial mentoring. This has led to services closing and mentors stepping in unpaid just to keep helping people in need 🪙💰🪙
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?
-
59.5% Yes, supporting people is important!
-
26.1% No, individuals should take responsibility
-
14.4% ... It is complicated
