Help our charity
So is anybody interested in helping our new charity?
Children with disability NZ?
And having the opportunity to learn. I spend a lot of time creating on computers.
This would be voluntary, but a good opportunity to increase your skill base.
I have access to a range of professional software including Canva, Adobe creative cloud, designer. Website software, office 365, and much more but I am only one person.
To help our new charity succeed we want to build our brand.
I would love to see us have a more educational YouTube page.
Does anybody want to start writing children's books?
I think I have the software, we would love books that include disabled children as the feature of the book.
I have a huge amount of abilities and a disability but really the abilities outweigh the disability.
So many ideas so much software so little time.
I have more than one computer and the capacity to teach and motivate.
I start late morning and work late into the night.
This would suit somebody able to learn and wanting to move forward and feel accomplished.
Personally, at the end of each day, I feel I have accomplished many things.
I have a home office not far from the Town Basin in a lovely bush setting ideal for being creative.
The person would work on a computer beside me in my home office and help me help others. a few hours a week, days or evenings.
3 cats and a dog will love to meet new people.
If interested please pm Glen McMillan

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
