I just want to state from the beginning, the kid refused to take money from me! That says a lot to me about his standards.

That says a lot to me about his standards. I went to the Dinsdale pharmacy and Darrin [wearing a black jacket with yellow "Everlast" writing] approached me and asked if I knew where he can get some work to support himself. The story is that his mother is in the hospital terminally ill and he just needs a place to stay and to be able to eat while he's in town. Apparently the overnight shelter asks $15 for a night - I don't know what options there are, maybe someone can help in that area? I could go back and give him a lift somewhere if someone can provide the correct advice. He looks genuinely desperate and after getting him a pie I told him to take $20 for the overnight shelter if nothing else comes up - he refused to take it. I gave him a card with my name on it and told him "Take the money, you can contact me and pay me back when you get a job". At that point he couldn't hold back his tears. I believe this is a genuine situation and would really appreciate any help. He said he has done painting before - either way if someone could just give him a chance to earn a little money to get some food in his belly and shelter for the night it would be much appreciated.

The Home Safety checklist will give you practical tips on how to avoid falls, sprains and strains while pulling those stubborn weeds. For example, when you’re gardening avoid heavy lifting and use long-handled tools so you’re not bending over for long periods. Steady yourself when bending and standing, no pesky weed is worth falling for!
A new movement called Live Stronger for Longer is helping to reduce the risk of falls by providing practical information and free resources. We want to help you stay on your feet, and living the life you want to live.
Take the home safety checklist with your friends and family and join the movement today.
Proudly brought to you by ACC, HQ&SC, MOH and your local community health providers.

During this time of giving, give a gift for good to help those who need it most. You can easily help them with warmth, water, meals, shelter, community outreach and welfare centre support.
We’re so grateful to all the generous sorts who’ve chipped in to get us here. So, let’s lose the gifts… and turn our big day into a celebration with the nation.
For every $10 donated from you, Spark Foundation will give $10 too – up to a grand total of $10,000 across all 10 charities.
