The Love Grace Handbag Appeal as posted on the TV3 The project FaceBook page.
Here is my post on The project FaceBook page for those who not see it on there. Angela Thompson
Not only does this appeal bring in the love and respect for the memory of Grace and her family, but it is bringing awareness to so many people, it is showing the love for each other and support in so many ways, and here in Te Aroha under The Mountain of love the 'Love Grace Handbag Appeal' has begun and today, 22nd February is a time also called 'Thinking Day" for the Girl Guide movement, when we think not of ourselves but girls and boys all over the world, what better time for us all to be aware of others no matter what age and what culture and to be part of this 'on going appeal' not just a memorial but a chain of love.

Say goodbye to tyre waste
About 40% of the 6.5 million tyres Kiwis use every year are recycled, repurposed, or used as tyre-derived fuel. But the rest end up in landfills, stockpiled or dumped.
The good news is now there’s an easy solution to all that tyre waste. It’s called Tyrewise and is New Zealand’s first national tyre recycling scheme.
Tyrewise ensures that tyres in Aotearoa New Zealand are recycled or repurposed properly, saving millions from going to the landfill.
