Our littlest people need your help. Poverty doesn’t start at 5, but until now there’s been no nationwide programme to help preschoolers who are hungry and cold.
KidsCan is changing that. They’re delivering raincoats, shoes and five fresh meals a week to 25 early childhood centres. Attendance is up, and the children are happier and more settled.
"Everyone has the same meal so children don't feel like they have less," Manaia View Kindergarten teacher Kathy Belz says. "It's upholding everyone's mana.”
40 more centres are waiting for help. KidsCan, Stuff and Neighbourly have partnered up to raise enough money to support 1000 more children - and we need 400 more generous Kiwis to hold little hands. To support a child, sign up at KidsCan.org.nz

The award recognises programmes, projects or initiatives that demonstrate outstanding results through innovative means of community engagement, or community empowerment, and was presented by Local Government Minister Nanaia Mahuta.
The judges praised the revitalisation project for achieving the successful balance of supporting a tourist destination, with the need to protect the cultural and environmental heritage value of the site.
SOLGM’s Chief Advisor Raymond Horan said many local authorities face similar challenges and the project was an example of how to get things right.

Helping people to know what their rights and responsibilities are and how they can act on these is core to what the Citizens Advice Bureau is about. We help people from all walks of life to access the information they need so they are empowered to take next steps and to resolve their problems.
A highlight of this year’s Awareness Week is the launch of the CAB’s new public website - www.cab.org.nz.... After a year of development and user testing, the resulting website provides an accessible, mobile-friendly, knowledgebase of 2,000 questions and answers about people’s rights that are based on real issues confronted by clients.
The information about rights is grounded in the law but is practical and is expressed in a way that’s easy to understand.
The website also provides a directory of more than 30,000 community organisations so that the CAB can help connect people with any additional services they need.
We’re keen to break down any barriers people face in finding out what their rights are. Our new website is a fantastic resource for the whole community, and complements the amazing face-to-face and phone service provided by our skilled and dedicated volunteers.
We invite you to Discover Your Rights with us this Awareness Week by checking out our new website www.cab.org.nz..., calling us 0800 367 222, or by visiting your local CAB. We’re here to help.

Our Garden of Earthly Delightscelebrates small parts of our amazing country, Aotearoa, New Zealand and the connection we have with it. The more often we see things around us, even the beautiful and stunning things, the more they become invisible to us. Consequently, we often take for granted the beauty of this world, the ocean, the trees, the birds, and the clouds - even those we love. Because we see things so often, we see them less and less.
