Photoshoots - Gumboot Friday - I AM HOPE

Tanja from Totara Vale

I AM HOPE is one of The MaGik in ME's companions and we walk beside them as they walk beside us and others. We support each companion individually as well as together.

The youth are the future and all of us need to make it a safe and happy place, a place where there is no judgment, no bullying, no harassment, no intimidation... a place where there is kindness, understanding, and support. For this to happen, we need to have people in place that can and are able help and support our youth in need. To do that, in this day and age, we need money to make this support and help available in the form of counselling.

Please, book a photoshoot with us and help us to help make difference to the youth needing help and support. In 2020 GUMBOOT FRIDAY did not happen due to lock-down from Covid-19. SO let's make this one bigger and better than ever. Let's show that we DO REALLY CARE!

Poll: Should the government levy industries that contribute to financial hardship?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

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?
