A huge thank you to the Invercargill Licensing Trust and the ILT Foundation @invercargilllicensingtrust!

The Team from SPCA Invercargill - Centre & Op Shops

We’re excited that thanks to their generous grant contribution, our two SPCA Op Shops in Invercargill have a brand-new tail lift delivery truck. It’s a fantastic addition that is already making a difference, helping our team collect quality donated goods more easily, deliver larger purchased items, and keep our Op Shops running smoothly for our community.

Every item bought or donated supports local animals in need, and this new truck is helping us make an enormous difference to the way we operate each day.

Thank you, ILT and the ILT Foundation, for your incredible support for SPCA Invercargill. Your kindness helps us care for animals and build a kinder community for all 💙🐾

Some Choice News!

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!
