Little Ray of Giving
This Christmas, Ray White Metro will continue its popular tradition of giving with the return of a little Ray of giving.
The inspiring Christmas campaign will see us partnering with Ronald McDonald House to help children and their families who may need a little extra light in their festive season.
We ask all those who are willing to embrace the giving season and dig deep for families in their community who need it most and donate a gift for a deserving child or family member and drop it into our office.
The campaign will officially launch in Australia and New Zealand on 1 December 2016.
This gift drive is a really simple way to help put a smile on the face of children and families who may need some extra cheer at this time of year!
All you need to do is wrap up your present and drop it under the tree at one of our offices below:
Church Corner - Cnr Waimairi & Riccarton Roads, Upper Riccarton
Halswell - 488 Sparks Road, Halswell
Wigram - Unit 4a, 1 Stark Drive, Wigram
Poll: What could the Christchurch City Council fund if it didn't have to pay GST on rates?
Christchurch mayor Phil Mauger says GST on rates, currently taken by central government, would be better spent locally.
The comments follow an Infometrics analysis that found over $1.1 billion of rates revenue nationwide was collected by the Government in 2022 as GST.
According to Infometrics, $88.5m of that came from Christchurch city ratepayers. It would be enough to save the Christ Church Cathedral from ruin; restore the Dux de Lux seven times over; cover both the Art Centre and Orana Wildlife Park’s request for regular public funding for over 26 years; contribute to light rail in Greater Christchurch; or get the South Library rebuild completed.
