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.

We asked the energy experts to breakdown the running costs of all our favourite winter warmers, so you can work out how to get the best heating bang for your buck.
And while it's no shock that firing up a 2Kw electric heater doesn't come cheap, the price of a warm bed for a toasty night's sleep might surprise you. Check out the full rundown, including electric blankets, hot showers, heated towel rails and more, here.

The options for doing so are endless! Being kind doesn’t have to cost a thing, after all a smile is free. For those who want to go the extra mile, here’s some other ideas: Buy extra kai at the grocery store to donate to a food pantry, help someone with a broken down car or flat tire, bring treats into work for colleagues, send an encouraging text to someone who needs it, let a car into the traffic ahead of you, take a gift over to new neighbours and introduce yourself, write positive messages in chalk on sidewalks around your neighbourhood, or surprise loved ones with a visit.
This month also coincides with World Humanitarian Day on August 19th and Random Acts of Kindness Day (New Zealand) which is on September 1st.
Let us know how you’re spreading kindness in your community by tagging us in your posts + using the following hashtag so we can see what you get up to:
