Christmas appeal
organised by your local community newspaper, Hibiscus Matters, in partnership with the Hibiscus Coast Community
House and the Orewa Baptist Church Christmas food drive. It’s about spending a
few dollars this Christmas to help others in the community who are going
through hard times.
Here’s
how it works: While you’re doing your Christmas
shopping, purchase a voucher of any denomination over $10 and drop it in to a
collection box (located at Manly Care Chemist, Manly Village, Eddie Law, Top of
the Plaza, Whangaparaoa; Beds R Us, Silverdale Centre; Dad’s Pies, Silverdale
Industrial or Hibiscus Matters’ office, Tamariki Plaza, Orewa) or post to
Hibiscus Matters, Unit G, 18 Tamariki Plaza, Cammish Lane, Orewa, 0931.
Vouchers
will be distributed to families in need with the Community House’s Christmas
food parcels, and by the Orewa Baptist Church as part of its Christmas food
drive. Vouchers can be for anything that will bring a little sunshine to a
struggling family on Christmas Day – fuel, groceries, toys, electrical goods,
toiletries, clothes and so on. Vouchers must be dropped into the boxes or
received in our office prior to December 10. Together, we can make a
difference.
