A warm hello Henderson community,
We wanted to touchbase reminding you to drop in regularly to check out the amazing donations Henderson ReStore are receiving every day. We are situated at 7 Dora Place.
There really are some awesome, surprising and beautiful gems arriving in our donations daily........and we want to share it with you.
So please keep us front of mind when you next fancy a 'second hand store adventure' or when donating your pre-loved goods.
The funds collected from our ReStores help Habitat for Humanity directly towards achieving their mission that 'everyone deserves a decent place to live'.
Right now, Habitat is responding to the devastation of Cyclone Gita in Tonga and Samoa. We are working with local aid agencies on the ground and arranging 1000 shelter kits to send to Tongan and Samoan families in need of a safe place to live after their homes have been damaged or destroyed.
Back home in NZ- Habitat, Auckland is very busy helping as many families as we can to live in dry, healthy homes. We are installing curtains, getting rid of black mould where ever we can and educating the families and landlords on ways to stop drafts, reduce dampness and tips on smart energy use.
Shelley, our awesome manager and her wonderful team of staff and volunteers look forward to saying a warm hi and helping you out in any way they can.
Happy Monday everyone! :-)
Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.
Do you think NZ should follow suit? Vote in our poll and share your thoughts below.
