Support a Refugee Family settle into Hamilton!
A great opportunity to help out in our community and to become a Refugee Support Volunteer (RSV) is coming up. The role is to support a UN-quota refugee family during their first 3 months of resettlement in Hamilton: setting up a house, introducing the new arrivals to NZ culture, assisting them with doctor’s registrations, school enrolments, finding their way around their new community etc. More information on our website: www.redcross.org.nz...
