Families struggling in ‘hardest lockdown yet’, KidsCan to deliver 2500 food parcels
Teachers have written in to a children’s charity describing the struggles and hardships families are facing in what they call the “hardest lockdown yet”.
KidsCan has contacted schools in Auckland and Wellington hit by positive cases of Covid-19, and says the responses are “heartbreaking”.
“I was lying awake last night unable to sleep trying to come up with a plan to help our whānau as the lockdown extension means critical support is now needed. We have 25 families that require food support, and I am at a loss of how to help them,” one early childhood teacher said,
“Our whānau are struggling with transport, money, being a solo parent, overcrowded houses, emergency houses and supermarkets closing in their area as they were on the list of locations of interest,” another teacher said.
In response the charity is delivering 2500 food parcels to communities hit hardest in Auckland and Wellington.
