Wanted: Ball Dresses and Suits
Donations to be dropped off at Otumoetai College main office, Monday-Friday 8:45am-3:20pm. Please message me if any more info is needed!
Hi!
My name is Mia Mackenzie and I am in my final year at Otumoetai College. I am part of the Special Events Committee - which runs events throughout the year, with the main one being the school ball. This year, I have decided to create an initiative that will assist students who may be struggling to purchase ball attire.
So, what I would like to ask of all you good people is - if you have any ball dresses, suits and other ball attire that you no longer need, we would be very grateful if you could donate it to Otumoetai College.
The ball attire would be free to students to borrow for the ball night - we will not be making any money at all. As the ball season approaches, some families can struggle buying both a ball ticket and attire - and we really want everyone invited to attend. This could really help out a student in need - and we would greatly appreciate your help.
Thank you so much :)

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?
-
59.5% Yes, supporting people is important!
-
26% No, individuals should take responsibility
-
14.4% ... It is complicated
