Craigs' Christmas Giving supports local charities
It is a real pleasure to have again worked with Craigs' Investment Partners on the Waikato section of their nationwide Christmas Giving programme.
This year they have made a $150,000 of Christmas donations to local communities across New Zealand.
With our assistance, Craigs' Hamilton Branch chose a diverse range of local charities to support, and then we delivered the funds - to Rural Support Trust, Kids in Need Waikato (pictured), Otorohanga Community Foodbank, Te Awamutu Community Food Forest, Friends of Mangaonua Esplanade Silverdale (pictured), and Operation Christmas Hamper.
The donations have been gratefully received and put to good use. For instance, Kids in Need Waikato say: “it went towards backpacks that children will receive this Christmas, perfect for starting the new school year next year.”
We’re always happy to help spread such seasonal cheer!
