Wellington North Community Patrol
Our purpose is to empower communities to prevent crime and create safer environments through the utilisation of trained and equipped volunteer patrols. In the November storms last year, we were on the road checking slips, directing traffic and clearing debris. The patrol needs funds to maintain its patrol vehicle - including ongoing petrol costs. Patrol members are also required to wear high-viz vests and currently we do not have sufficient on hand to allocate to each of our patrollers. VOTE NOW!
Surrogate Grandparents NZ
I have started up a non profit organisation called Surrogate Grandparents NZ who's aim is to unite families who may not have their own Grandparents close by, or are no longer alive with "Surrogate" Grandparents. It will provide support for families with young children as well as being companionship for the older generation who may be lonely and away from their own families. VOTE NOW!

North Shore Initial Response Trust
Every week we voluntarily train to prepare for disasters when emergency services require additional support in searches for missing people, sandbagging to protect properties from flooding, and helping limit damage to people and properties following events such as tornadoes, storms and tsunamis. As a group of volunteers, we are not paid for any of this activity. Since the equipment is exposed to extreme weather events and difficult environments, it regularly needs to be replaced. There is some vital equipment we are in need of in order to be able to continue our dedicating our time to helping keep people safe. VOTE NOW!
Riverton Community Garden Project
Our goal is to create a self-funding, sustainable food producing garden that can eventually start to give back to those most in need within our community, such as struggling families, and the elderly. We rely on various age groups to look after the garden, including the Riverton Primary School, Aparima College (local high school) and Riverton Childcare and other local volunteers. We are seeking funding to establish infrastructure to support the garden for many years to come. VOTE NOW!
Over the next 10 days we'll be introducing two AMI Community Grant finalists to share a bit more about the great work they're doing in Kiwi communities. You can help support these organisations by voting for them to win their share of $20,000.

Youth & Search Rescue Trust - Tauranga
14 to 18 year old students from the whole Bay of Plenty are trained in volunteering and helping rescue people. They learn First Aid, searching in urban and back country situations, water safety, leadership and many more amazing life changing subjects. This organisation receives no government funding and relies on grants and donations to train these amazing young people. VOTE NOW!
Seddon Community and Neighbourhood Support Group
Seddon is our small rural township located to the south of Blenheim on SH1. Rocked and devastated (again) by the quakes in November 2016. With the loss of access to Christchurch via the Main North Line, and SH 1, we are at the “end of the line”. Every one of our self employed residents has taken a huge hit, many of whom can no longer support themselves especially with the removal of all emergency funding as of the 14th February. we are hoping to be able to provide to the whole community, access to essential first aid kits at reasonable and affordable costs to all the residents. It is for this initiative we are seeking some funding in order to subsidise these kits. VOTE NOW!!
Vote now for your most deserving local community group or charity so they can be in to win 1 of 3 “Freezell” fridges, designed and personalised by Dick Frizzell.

I have often wondered what the word "TEMPORARY" means to the national roading body of NZ. Often "Temporary" appears to means years in some cases I have seen in the past, even without roadworks. But today, unless I'm going mad (which is a possibility!), the permanent 50Km speed limit, which has been in place for decades, through the town of Kaiwaka in Northland, has become "Temporary"! And I mean the 50km bit past the hotel and such, not the 70Km section south of that. So any answers NZ?

to be a part of a Whangaroa Artist focus group to create events and opportunities to perform, create, and exhibit.
The Whanagroa Community Trust has been asked by the Far North District Councils Creative Communities Scheme to connect with the artists of Whangaroa to find out how we can help in assisting the artists in our area.
Creative communities would like to see an artists focus group form that can work along side the Whangaroa Community Trust and Creative Communities to apply for funding to either assist individual artists, hold community exhibitions / workshops and in the future look at new initiatives that can assist our artists promote and sell their work through a local event.
We would like to invite you and any other interested local artists and craftsmen to an Arts Focus Group meeting to hear your voice and ideas.
