🌈 Celebrate Community – Mar. 1st to 31st πŸ’™πŸŽ‰

The Team from Neighbourhood Support New Zealand

Knowing your neighbours is one thing, but actually spending time together is to write a much richer story together... an opportunity to have fun, learn more about each other, and recognise that the strings that connect us often run much longer than just the length of our streets.

Knowing your neighbours is one thing, but actually spending time together is to write a much richer story together... an opportunity to have fun, learn more about each other, and recognise that the strings that connect us often run much longer than just the length of our streets.

This month is all about bringing your community together and having a great time! We want March to be all about celebrating the connections we have while making new ones along the way. As we all know, what makes a neighbourhood great isn't the houses and cars, gardens and streets - it's the people who share their presence and aroha with each other.

A wonderful way to take part is to participate in Neighbours Day Aotearoa which is celebrating it's 10th anniversary from March 22nd to 31st. To help you get started, we love their suggestions for 10 little and 10 big ways to get involved. (link below)

Let us know how you're celebrating this month by tagging us in your posts + using the following hashtag so we can see what you get up to:

My business is running a water tank fundraiser for Oxfam. We will deliver and install a 200L emergency water tank (to a downpipe, or fill and secure it on your property) for $350; an 800L tank for $740. We are also installing existing tanks for $140.


With every tank install we are donating $100 to Oxfam, and are trying to reach a $5,000 donation to their water programs for refugees and schools in less privileged countries where they have no clean water.


We're also a local Berhampore business and we're not making any money of our own off this project, so if you have been thinking about getting your water tank sorted and need some fresh enthusiasm to do it for you, give me a bell!

Price: $350
