Kia ora ko ahau a Justin

Lifewise

Kia ora whanau, this is Justin Carr, proud Peer Support Worker at Lifewise Rotorua.

I bet you'd like to know why and how I gave up a life of homelessness and stayed 11 months off all substances. I am a walking, talking example of what homeless can do when people give us an opportunity and care.

Want to find out how I changed? Want to see how you can support others to make such positive change? Then join the Lifewise Big Sleepout Rotorua!

Help me help other homeless people to empower themselves, get off the streets, and say "I am worthy, I can do anything once given a chance."

Join me and sign up today to raise funds for this mahi, "sleep rough" for one night at our local Village Green on the night of 5th September 2019.

Nga mihi,
Justin Carr - Peer Support Worker, Lifewise Rotorua

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Press investigates the growing reliance on your unpaid labour.

Automation (or the “unpaid shift”) is often described as efficient ... but it tends to benefit employers more than consumers.

We want to know: What do you think about automation?
Are you for, or against?
