Hi

My charity NZ Gifts of Love and Strength has launched a pick me up appeal for those affected by the devastating floods in the Upper South Island.

We know from our appeals for Mid Canterbury and Westport / Buller floods the importance of receiving something after all the volunteer helpers have left and you are dealing still with the clean up and insurance etc. Stress is very high. We want to ensure they do not feel like they have been forgotten about.

We have got Lions Host Club Nelson and Lions Havelock dispersing to those most greatly affected in approximately 3 - 4 weeks time.

SVA will be collecting the following items ONLY from our collection points:

A card handmade or bought ( do not seal envelope) write a nice message or even write a poem on a piece of paper it does not have to cost a lot of money. It's the thought that counts.

A small packet of lollies , or packet of individual packets of lollies or chocolate

A small flat knitted or sewn handmade heart/worry worm etc that will fit into a card envelope.

Drop off points are :
all New World Supermarkets
Super Value Lyttelton
Paper Plus New Brighton
Rangi-Ruru Boarding House
Silver Boutique Bishopdale
Dominator Doors
TC Transcontinental (airport business hub)
St Albans Community Centre
Hornby Community Centre
PIPS charity Wainoni

We would love schools, retirement homes, craft groups to be involved.

Please email us on giftsofloveandstrength@gmail.com if you would like to be involved.

The pictures are our first donation from a family that came on at Preston's New World and a good example of what we are trying to give those affected by the mud /floods.
