First Laptop Donation

Matthew from Computer Help NZ

At Computer Help NZ, we believe that technology has the power to bring people together, provide opportunities, and make a real difference in the lives of individuals and organizations. That’s why we’re thrilled to announce the very first laptop donation through our Trade-In for Charities program, part of our Community Help Project. This marks the beginning of what we hope will be a long and impactful journey of giving back to the Christchurch community and beyond.

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?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Press investigates the growing reliance on your unpaid labour.

Automation (or the “unpaid shift”) is often described as efficient ... but it tends to benefit employers more than consumers.

We want to know: What do you think about automation?
Are you for, or against?
