We are honored to work with Save the Rain, a non-profit charity, to assist with food delivery within our community. As a long-standing partner of our Trust, they understand the growing need for food security, particularly at this time of the year when things get tight and stress can run high. We're here to bring a little Christmas cheer.

Together, we will be providing our annual Christmas Food Hampers, and this year we’re aiming to extend our support even further. We'd like to invite the community to participate by nominating yourself or someone you know who would benefit from receiving a food parcel this Christmas.

With the help of Ray White's 'A Little Ray of Giving', we will also have have a range of Christmas Gifts to pass onto local Children who may otherwise go without.

We are grateful to our partners who share our vision and commitment to ensuring that no family goes without this holiday period.

How It Works:

1. Nominate Someone in Need: Nominate someone in our community who could use a little extra help this winter. This could be a neighbor, friend, or family member who needs a little Christmas cheer.

2. Confidential and Respectful: All nominations are confidential. We respect the privacy and dignity of those receiving assistance.

3. Food Packages: Each food package will include fresh seasonal produce and protein.

4. Delivery: Our team will reach out to the nominees to obtain their consent to receive a food package. Delivery available or pick up from our office from Thursday 18 December. 

How to Nominate:

• Fill this online nomination form or pop into our community center (505 Port Road, Whangamata) for a paper copy. 

• Submit the form by Friday 12 December.

Note: Food Hampers and Gifts are limited - nominations will be fulfilled in order received (first come first served). Nominations close Friday 12 December, however, if we reach capacity, nominations will close earlier.
