Nurturing Families charity URGENT APPEAL in "dire need of children's clothing from newborn to 10 years"

Julia from Henderson

🚨 URGENT APPEAL: We're in dire need of children's clothing from newborn to 10 years old. The demand is unprecedented, and our donations are depleting rapidly. Today alone, we have 76 orders we can't fulfill due to insufficient stock.

Please ensure donated items are in good condition—no rips, stains, or holes. If you wouldn't pass it to a loved one please kindly refrain from donating it. Your help in washing and sorting items by size would immensely speed up our distribution process.

We are 6/42 Henderson Valley road. Open 9-2 Monday- Thursday
The items you donate will clothe a child in need of some warmth and together we can really make a difference! ❤️

to address this dire need, they are opening up for a one off delivery drop in over THIS weekend. - Saturday 8 May, 10am to 3pm - 6/42 Henderson Valley Road

if you're in West Auckland please consider supporting this awesome charity either with donations (CURRENTLY as of 4 June "dire need of children's clothing from newborn to 10 years") (or with TIME*)

if you can't help with donations, ALL GOOD - maybe consider donating your TIME - lending a hand with help (an hour or two of extra hands can really make a difference)

Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

In The Post’s opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, we’re “allergic to exuberance.”

We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?

Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.
