Compassion Soup Kitchen Street Appeal
Can you spare an hour or two on the 14th June to help collect for the Soup Kitchen's annual street appeal? This is the Soup Kitchen's biggest fundraiser of the year and helps to keep the doors open to many vulnerable Wellingtonians. The Compassion Soup Kitchen has a rich history in the Wellington community, and we strive to ensure that the mission of Suzanne Aubert is kept alive through our mahi with people on the margins of society.
To sign up go to soupkitchen.org.nz... or email volunteers@compassion.org.nz
Thanks!!
Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.
Do you think NZ should follow suit? Vote in our poll and share your thoughts below.
