The Salvation Army - Red Shield Appeal & Street Collection
There are Kiwi's across New Zealand living on the edge. So many people who are one step away from disaster and chaos.
But you can help:
This week is our national Red Shield Appeal Week. This is when we collect vital funds to help us run frontline services including Foodbanks, Financial Mentoring, Social Work, Parenting Courses, Lifeskills and Counselling. The current cost of living crisis has meant that we are needed more than ever. If you can give, either of your time to help us collect in our street appeal or through giving a donation, this would make a world of difference. And to all our supporters and colleagues already collecting and donating - Thank you so much - God Bless you!! Donate Below....
