Pak ‘n Save donates food to struggling south Aucklanders
A supermarket store is donating food to vulnerable people in Manukau.
Pak ‘n Save Manukau spokesperson Stephen Lockie approached suppliers to see if they had any appetite for a product donation, and the response was overwhelmingly positive.
Avalanche, Tegel, Goodman Fielder and Healtheries, with Pak ‘n Save Manukau, donated 24 pallets of food to Buttabean Motivation, an initiative promoting healthy living in south Auckland.
Buttabean Motivation spokesperson Dave Letele said he was grateful for the support.
“Thanks to their donation we’re able to help families who need our help the most,” he said.
Lockie said he was overwhelmed by the generosity of the supplier community.
“With their help we’ve been able to make an incredible difference in our community to keep feeding Manukau families,” he said.
“Community support is vital during these unprecedented times, which is why we need to continue to stand together and help support one another.”

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!
