FUNDRAISER FOR UKRAINE AT HARBOURSIDE MARKET TODAY (SUNDAY 12 JUNE) FROM 8AM TO 2PM.

Melissa from Waterloo

Dear fellow Wellingtonians and visitors to our fine city.

Come eat some delicious food AND support the people of Ukraine at the same time! A rag-tag team of bakers will be at the famous Wellington fixture - Harbourside Market tomorrow ( Sunday 12 June ). The market is beside Te Papa Museum on Cable St. Our stall will be decked out in bright blue and yellow so we'll be hard to miss!

We are selling a wide range of lovingly home-baked food products and all proceeds will go to humanitarian aid and medical support for the children and adults of Ukraine affected by the war through two carefully chosen organisations (Ohmatdyt - ohmatdyt.com.ua... and Razom for Ukraine (razom means together in Ukrainian) - razomforukraine.org...).

As well as the food products a range of other Ukrainian themed items will be available for sale too.


We will be at the market from 8 am till 2 pm. Don't forget to bring cash!

We look forward to seeing you there.

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?
