Habitat for Humanity - Housing opportunities for our community
Habitat for Humanity is a registered housing charity and Community Housing Provider. They reached out to us to ask if we wouldn't mind helping them to tell folks the latest on one of their programmes which helps families get into their first homes through a rent-to-own model.
Habitat for Humanity is taking expressions of interest for new homes in Mangere, for move-in June 2024. They are holding an information evening for those interested in knowing more about how progressive home ownership works, eligibility criteria and how they can help you on your journey to owning your first home!
Where: Mangere Memorial Hall, 23 Domain Rd, Mangere Bridge
When: Tuesday 19th March from 7pm to 9pm.
Please follow the links below to either the event page on Facebook or to put forward an expression of interest on their website.

⚠️ DOGS DIE IN HOT CARS. If you love them, don't leave them. ⚠️
It's a message we share time and time again, and this year, we're calling on you to help us spread that message further.
Did you know that calls to SPCA about dogs left inside hot cars made up a whopping 11% of all welfare calls last summer? This is a completely preventable issue, and one which is causing hundreds of dogs (often loved pets) to suffer.
Here are some quick facts to share with the dog owners in your life:
👉 The temperature inside a car can heat to over 50°C in less than 15 minutes.
👉 Parking in the shade and cracking windows does little to help on a warm day. Dogs rely on panting to keep cool, which they can't do in a hot car.
👉 This puts dogs at a high risk of heatstroke - a serious condition for dogs, with a mortality rate between 39%-50%.
👉 It is an offence under the Animal Welfare Act to leave a dog in a hot vehicle if they are showing signs of heat stress. You can be fined, and prosecuted.
SPCA has created downloadable resources to help you spread the message even further. Posters, a flyer, and a social media tile can be downloaded from our website here: www.spca.nz...
We encourage you to use these - and ask your local businesses to display the posters if they can. Flyers can be kept in your car and handed out as needed.
This is a community problem, and one we cannot solve alone. Help us to prevent more tragedies this summer by sharing this post.
On behalf of the animals - thank you ❤️
