Help needed for puppy's surgery

Wendy from Blockhouse Bay

Roo is a bouncy, playful 12 week old Chihuahua X. She had a freak accident and broke her leg - in medical terms, she sustained a Medial Condyler Elbow Fracture. Specialist surgery is costing thousands of dollars.
Her owner is a 19 year old who has just started a new job and can't meet the cost herself.

We want to give this wee girl the best chance in life and amputation would have meant she would lose quality of life. Roo is named after a kangaroo as she jumps, climbs and bounces everywhere she goes!

Please help us to fund her specialist surgery to give her the happy and healthy life she deserves!

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?
