Kai for Kaiapoi: North Canterbury woman delivering kai to those in need
A North Canterbury woman is scaling up her generosity from finding ways to use leftover groceries, to creating an organisation dedicated to feeding those most in need.
Kelly Jeffs began making meals in her Kaiapoi kitchen eight weeks ago to use up any pantry items she did not want to waste, but the “insane” response she got when she offered to give the meals away on a Facebook community page told her more needed to be done.
“I didn’t realise so many people needed help. It’s not just people on lower incomes.”
She set up Kai for Kaiapoi North Canterbury last week – a self-funded venture to help what she said was a growing need in low and middle income families struggling to feed themselves or their families.
Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?
An Auckland court has ruled a woman doesn’t have to contribute towards the cost of fixing a driveway she shares with 10 neighbours.
When thinking about fences, driveways or tree felling, for example, do you think all neighbours should have to pay if the improvements directly benefit them?
