Reminder - save $$$ if you need probate

Director / lawyer from Kiwilaw

The Neighbourly team recognises the value of the site for assessing community need and for this reason, we have a number of features perfect for election purposes.

Any campaigning should take place away from the general noticeboard. We've got a few options to help ensure your message is getting out to Neighbourly members. We'd suggest starting your own group on Neighbourly - this is a great way to connect with those who want to get updates about your candidacy.

We also have business profiles available for all candidates if you would like your messages to appear on the Neighbourly noticeboard. As well as this, we have special Neighbourly Advertising rates for election candidates. Get in touch with us to find out more.

Already an elected official? Neighbourly also offers all elected officials the option of creating an organisation profile to connect with those in their electorate - although these profiles should not be used for campaigning.

If you have any questions or need any assistance then let us know!

A $2 donation will get a set of knife/fork/spoon, or a packet of wipes.

A $10 donation will get an eating set of plate/bowl/cup and knife/fork/spoon

A $20 donation will get us nappies, soap, shampoo and all of the above.

EVERY donation, no matter how small will help a family, and we would be so grateful!
