New Financial Literacy Fund

The Team from Momentum Waikato

Cambridge philanthropists, John and Nicola Kenel, supported by their business Assured Property, recently established a new named fund with Momentum Waikato. The 'Financial Literacy Fund' will support students with critical financial literacy skills needed before they embark on their working careers; change their habits from 'spend, spend, spend' to one where they learn to prioritise money and save for things they need. This fund will instill our youth with hope that they can strive to achieve their goals.

Over the next year before the first round of distributions are made, we want to learn what programmes are out there that we may be able to help support and grow. Talk to us at Momentum Waikato Community Foundation.

Poll: Would you commute by public transport if it was free?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

Using your car is convenient, except for finding parking.

Cycling lets you leave anytime, but you might arrive soaked.

So, neighbours, if public transport had the perk of being free, would it be your main way to commute?

Did you know Winston Peters was in town over the weekend?

Libby Totton Reporter from Waikato Times

New Zealand First’s 31st convention ended with two arrests after pro-Palestine protesters and attendees clashed, following leader Winston Peters’ address.

While that incident grabbed the headlines in Hamilton, policy is also in the spotlight as a question mark now hangs over the Government’s plan to reform contractor law.

Poll: Does grocery bagging affect where you shop?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

There's only a few differences between our larger chain supermarkets here in New Zealand. Having someone bag your groceries is one of them.

Does having your groceries packed for you at the checkout influence where you do your grocery shop? If so, tell us why.
