Help for a family in need
Kia ora all, a friend's relative of mine from India contacted her about this family in Auckland. She got in touch with them Yesterday morning and have been with them in the hospital since afternoon.
Their story: moved to NZ 3 years ago with wife and a young daughter. Son was born on 4th May this year through c-section. 3 weeks ago JP’s speech started slurring and doctors diagnosed 3 brain tumours. He is currently unresponsive. Family doesn’t know many people in NZ and with him not being able to work and wife on maternity leave, they can do with any help we all can provide.
Friend has started a givealittle fund page.Any contributions welcome.

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?
-
60.9% Yes, supporting people is important!
-
23.5% No, individuals should take responsibility
-
15.6% ... It is complicated
