Pyjama Drive
Can you help with our pyjama drive to keep Franklin kids warm and healthy this winter?
So far we have distributed 376 pairs of pyjamas to the lowest-decile schools in our area. These are given to students who their schools have identified to be most at risk of the winter illnesses. We are not there yet.
The major shortages are for girls' sizes 6, 8 and 10 and boys' sizes 10, 12 and small men's. The nights are getting colder and we are hoping to get these out soon.
In Pukekohe, pyjamas can be left at St Andrew's Anglican Church, 43 Queen St; Top Notch, King St; Pukekohe Travel, King St; Bed Post, Wrightson Way; and Trailer World Manukau Rd.
In Waiuku, pyjamas can be left at ASB Bank, Queen St.
If you would like to donate cash so we can fill in some of the gaps this can be deposited in the Pukekohe Community Action Charitable Trust account at the ASB 12-3023-0071016-00
