Do you have an hour or more to spare on Friday 28 June?
The Vinnies Street Appeal is back and we are looking for people to collect on Wellington's streets in support of the Vinnies welfare services.
As a self-funded organisation, this appeal is vital for the future of our services which include:
- A choice based food bank.
- A full-time social worker.
- Supported employment for people with intellectual disabilities.
- Access to free furniture, homeware and clothing.
- Clothing and bedding packs to new mum’s and their babies.
- Companionship to those in rest homes, hospitals and isolated residencies.
- An inclusive sustainable sewing studio providing meaningful activity for the community.
