With uncertain times for so many our volunteers took to the streets with 60 Care packages & blankets to share with our streetie’s in Auckland City it wasn't near enough to cover for the multitudes living rough  the night was a cold one with many snuggled up in blankets lining the pavement huddled in small spaces for cover and warmth the usual soup kitchen was closed met with many smiles and grateful people so happy to receive their bags.  (Thank you Lisa & Wendy helping to provide for them)
