Give a Little - support for my sister

Tania from East Invercargill

Hi neighbours, givealittle.co.nz...
This post is for my sister, Carole, who has recently been diagnosed with advanced (stage 4) cancer. It's a ghastly diagnosis for anyone to receive, but it seems especially cruel because Carole's been through some difficult & stressful years, especially recently. Her daughter, and only child, passed away last year, under tragic circumstances, leaving her 3 children in Carole's care. Carole has been, and still is, their rock. If you are able to help us support Carole... our sister, nanna, aunty, who is very special to us, we are truly grateful. There is no expectation from us that you give, but there is a deep and loving gratitude for your kindness if you do. Arohanui, Tania

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?

Poll: As a customer, what do you think about automation?

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?
