Be in to win! It's for a good cause!
Hi guys,
I am selling raffle tickets on behalf of my youth group for $2 each. The winner will receive:
- 1 cord of split pine from Millers Firewood
- 4 sacks of pine cones
- Extra kindling
And that's not even the end of it, we will deliver it and stack it for you!
Please message me on Neighbourly or text me, Briana Collins, on 0279388448 if you are interested in making the most of this offer and I will come to you, record your details and collect the payment. The winner will be drawn on the 31st of March and notified soon after.
This is to fundraise for a brilliant opportunity for local youth group, Emerge. We are heading down to Christchurch for Southern Eastercamp 2017 and we are needing to fund our transport costs as well as hire a marquee for the four days that we are down there. So please help us out and you might find yourself with $264 worth of wood for the winter!
Poll: Should the government levy industries that contribute to financial hardship?
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?
-
59.4% Yes, supporting people is important!
-
26.3% No, individuals should take responsibility
-
14.3% ... It is complicated
Earth Emotions Silent Auction
Monday 16th February - Monday 2nd March
Bid on a special collection of 20 unframed prints by local photographers from an exhibition called Earth Emotions.
Glenn Allbrecht's book, Earth Emotions, inspired Ann Wheatley, Emma Jane Hughes and Peter Kemp to create a local exhibition exploring the health of our soils, waters, forests, and people, with support from the Nelson Tasman Climate Forum and the Nelson City Council.
Forty-seven photographers responded to an open call, contributing over 100 images. A selection of these was exhibited at the Refinery Art Space.
The photographers have donated 20 exhibition prints to raise funds for the hospice.
