Collecting lawnmowers or home appliances for repurposed, reuse, or been fixed and Blessed few families Weekly
Am collecting any unwanted petrol
Lawnmowers , weed eaters, water blasters, furnitures that can be restores or repurpose , fixed up to reuse rather then going to landfill , my own initiatives this year I’m trying to see if I can personally fixes them on my own expenses and own time and resell them or give them to anyone in need in neighbours but can donate a percentage to our supported charity Feed the hungry and run with it for the year .
Have been given away free lawnmowers every week if contacted number below to a family in need .
Journey now begins
Thank you all

These mowers have found new homes and new families in need some are on trademe or marketplace too
Thank you
Quick text will be appreciated happy to pick ups around east Auckland for a start
Will see where this idea goes

DOC is rolling out a new tool to help figure out what to tackle first when it comes to protecting our threatened species and the things putting them at risk.
Why does this matter? As Nikki Macdonald from The Post points out, we’re a country with around 4,400 threatened species. With limited time and funding, conservation has always meant making tough calls about what gets attention first.
For the first time, DOC has put real numbers around what it would take to do everything needed to properly safeguard our unique natural environment. The new BioInvest tool shows the scale of the challenge: 310,177 actions across 28,007 sites.
Now that we can see the full picture, it brings the big question into focus: how much do we, as Kiwis, truly value protecting nature — and what are we prepared to invest to make it happen?
We hope this brings a smile!
