Looking for clothes to suit your fuller figure? Come to my front porch in Waterloo!
Hi, I am selling some unwanted items of clothing to raise money for Greenstone Doors www.greenstonedoors.co.nz... They are primarily large and extra large sizes.
Greenstone Doors is a Charitable Trust which functions as a pregnancy focused centre where women and whanau are able to receive accurate and professional information and care.
We provide education, counselling, resources and support for women and their families during and after pregnancy through an independent network of counselling and support professionals. There is no other organisation like out that offers non-judgemental support to women before, during and after pregnancy whatever the outcome.
The clothes will be on our front porch at 23 Burnside Street, Waterloo each day 7am - 7pm. Suggested donation per item for the clothes on hangers is $5-$10 and for the items in the box below $2. There are envelopes to put your donation into which you can slip under the front door. There is no change obviously and nowhere to try clothes on. I would ask that all hangers are left behind please and the wardrobe is not for sale. We have a dog who may bark but she is secured in the back section so no worries there.
All monies raised will go towards advertising and promotion of our big 'Shoetember' shoe sale which will be held in September this year.
Thanks in anticipation of your generosity!
Monica

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)
.
