Do a good thing at our Street Collections!

Jason Sebestian from Red Cross - Waikato Service Centre

We need you! Collect donations as part of our annual appeal in March 2019 by inspiring and encouraging the public to give to Red Cross.
The Red Cross Hamilton Service Centre will be holding a street collection in March 2019 - and we need your help! It only takes an hour or two to make a big difference.
It's very rewarding for you to be able to get out into your community, meeting and greeting people, encouraging them to donate, knowing that you're doing good too by supporting a great cause.
The time commitment is flexible, depending on your availability. Easy to use Tap & Go terminals will be available in some areas to accept card donations; training will be provided to collectors.
Express your interest by signing up by clicking at the link below. You could also add a fundraising partner. It would be great if everyone could work in pairs, it makes the day go quicker, you have someone to talk to and you can share the items that you carry.
Please feel free to forward this information on to friends and families or your work place to encourage people to volunteer their time.

Thank you for your consideration.

Ask your questions about renting rights THIS WEDNESDAY!

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

We are continuing our Q&A sessions on Neighbourly with the amazing, Sacha Green, from Citizens Advice Bureau New Zealand (CABNZ) who'll be talking about renting rights. We invite you to share a question for her then!

A little bit about Sacha:
She has been working for CABNZ for 10 years and is passionate about empowering people with knowledge of their rights as well as ensuring access to justice.

She helps support the team of over 2,000 trained volunteers who deliver the CAB service in 80 neighbourhoods around Aotearoa by providing advice and support at a national level on a wide range of issues. One of Sacha’s work areas is leading the CAB’s social justice work on housing and tenancy issues.

Whether you're a flatmate, landlord, boarder or flatmate you'll be able to leave a comment below on Wednesday and Sacha will answer your questions. You may want to ask about notice periods, bond fulfillment, reasonable rent increases, or even whose responsibility it is to deal with mould in the home.

Join Sacha here on Wednesday at 9.30am. See you then!.
