Pyjamas Appeal
I'm appealing for pajama donations for my non-profit organization, The Raindrop Project. The Raindrop Project is a non-profit initiative that delivers care packages to those in hospital settings who are going through a traumatic time. This November we are delivering packages to those in the Lower North Island's RRAIS unit, the adolescent mental health unit. Many of the children in this unit don't have their own pajamas. Wearing hospital clothes can lead to them feeling more isolated and out of control when they are in an environment with little they can control. A donation of pajamas will help them hugely in getting through a tough time. Your donation could be the light that shows them that people still care and that there's a life waiting for them out there. If you have pajamas that are new/unopened, or if you would be able to go out and buy a pair, that would be hugely appreciated. We are looking for sizes that would fit 12 - 17 year olds. I am happy to come and pick them up, just send me a text at 020 4184 9123 or email me at projecttheraindrop@gmail.com . Alternatively, if you can't find the time to go out and donate through this link: givealittle.co.nz...
A $5 donation buys a pair of pajamas for a kid. Any amount is appreciated though, thank you so much. Your actions will make a huge difference to these kids.
Thanks,
Lucia (Tracey's Daughter)

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!
