A Year's Supply of Toilet Paper - List, Sell Give Hope! with Red Cross

The Team from Red Cross - Otago Service Centre

Did you know that on average a family of four uses 1.1 rolls of toilet paper a day, 8 rolls a week and 32 rolls a month 🧻🧻

Thanks to my Fundraiser.co.nz we have 240 XL rolls of toilet paper to auction; this equates to 480 regular rolls... and well over a year's supply for a family of four!

Made from 70% hardwood pulp (Pine from Uruguay) and 30% softwood pulp (Spruce from Finland), the paper is certified sustainably sourced, flush ability tested and there are no added wet strength agents. My Fundraiser proudly offer a product that is free from plastic, right down to paper tape to seal the box.

Roll on in and place a bid on this household staple 🚽

Some Choice News!

Kia pai from Sharing the Good Stuff

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.

Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.

Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?

Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
