PLEASE SHARE THIS POST TO YOUR FRIENDS AND GIVEALITTE TO DELTA COMMUNITY SUPPORT TRUST FOOD BANK www.givealittle.co.nz...

Delta Community Support Trust is most appreciative of Matthew’s offer to cycle around the South Island to raise awareness of food security issues among low income people.

Matthew regularly collects and provides canned food and other goods to Delta and other charities. This provides much needed support to people struggling to make ends meet. For more information about his work please see his Facebook page. www.facebook.com... and the following article. www.stuff.co.nz...

Delta is a Christian community development agency working in Richmond and surrounding suburbs. We use the food provided by Matthew to help feed people in need. We do this mainly through a Food Bank through which we distribute 1400 parcels a year, and a low cost community meal that provides 2800 two course dinners a year. We are a registered Charity (Charity Number CC21084) For more information about us please see www.deltatrust.org.nz...

If you could consider supporting us either through giving cans, or by cash that would be much appreciated. For the latter this is most easily done through our givealittle page www.givealittle.co.nz.... Please include the words ‘recyclingman’ with your donation.

Thanks again to Matthew for this huge effort to help people in need.

Thank you also so much for considering supporting us.
Yours Sincerely,
Ian Burn
Services Coordinator / CEO

Some Choice News!

Kia pai from Sharing the Good Stuff

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!
