Back in lockdown, we featured a story on Abigail Clements and Mackenzie (Macka) Harvey who raised funds for The Salvation Army’s foodbank through a Give A Little page. Called #KiwisHelpingKiwis, the page raised $555 (their goal was $500) which will be used to create food packages for families in need.
Recently Abigail and Macka were presented with Certificates of Appreciation by Donna Hedley, Northern Relationships Manager for The Salvation Army. “I was incredibly impressed by the girls’ efforts and their passion to support the community,” she said. “Certainly I imagine these girls to be an example to their peers and students that any school would be proud of.”
We are proud. Well done Abigail and Macka.
Donna has invited the students to visit a Community Ministry Centre to see a food bank and the work that happens there supporting the community.
