Please help us to find a new location

North Shore Community Toy Library NSCTL from North Shore Community Toy Library (NSCTL)

Dear Neighbours,

Our little pressures community charity needs to vacate our current building early next year. Although we are looking for over a year now we can't find something for us. We are after 80 sqm of room or rooms. We are a Toy Library and need the room to welcome our families when picking up their toys and to store our toys. We are flexible whether it is an office or retail building, a warehouse, container building or garage, in a school/ daycare retirement villages or in cooperation with other organizations. We also considerung to build our own if we can find land.
We can pay rent, but the $35,000 standard commercial fee is just too much for us. We are around for 34 years now and apart from a librarian entirely run by volunteers. We give access to over 1,300 high quality educational toys for a small annual fee. This not just saves parents money but is also good for the environment. W
Please help us being able to help our beautiful kids also for the coming 30 years!

Kia pai from Sharing the Good Stuff

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.

Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.

Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?

Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
