Play a guessing game and help me fundraise for a great cause

Roanna from Botany Downs

Hi all,
Hope you're all staying well and safe during the lockdown.
I've been doing origami to pass the time and got an idea to try and raise funds for a charity I support - HELP Auckland.
Help me help them, and have a little fun with this origami crane guessing game: act2help.everydayhero.com...
A lot of non-profit organisations will have their operations affected by the lockdown and I want to do my part to support them.
Thank you for your kindness and generosity :)

The crane is a symbol of hope, happiness and healing. For people who have been hurt by sexual violence, HELP Auckland is there to support them, give them hope and provide a way forward, towards healing and happiness.
During the lockdown, there will be many survivors of sexual abuse who will continue to need HELP Auckland’s support. Their crisis and therapy services help survivors to deal with their trauma and take care of their mental wellbeing.
Be kind and stay safe everyone! We can get through this together.

Georgina's Rhubarb Crumble

Bruce McLaren Retirement Village

Craving a dessert that makes the most of spring's fresh produce? Look no further than Georgina's signature Rhubarb Crumble.

This delicious treat has become a favourite at Ryman’s Bert Sutcliffe Village, where the sweet and tangy aroma often wafts through the air, tempting neighbours in for a taste. It’s also a hit with Georgina's 13-year-old granddaughter, Brooklyn, who loves serving it warm with gooey custard or a scoop of melting vanilla ice cream.

Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.

This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.

Do you think this ban is reasonable?
