I think about this all the time. How stuck people are. If a home is unsafe, and people are ready to leave, where do they go now? Rents are too expensive, and emergency and transitional housing are at capacity.

Was having coffee with a friend earlier & she mentioned it was on the news last night that 600 thousand kiwis need food assistance . Think about that. 12% of the population can’t afford food. That’s the ones known about who aren’t being helped by family etc.
From Di “ Ivana has not let trauma define her. She travels for herself, ro keep a promise to her brother that she would travel for the both of them. And the hope that young women, who have been through what she has been through, can see there is hope on the other side!”
Curious about us? Have a look at all the interviews and media we’ve done over the years. aunties.co.nz/pages/media
Starting from today I thought I’d walk you through the new website. It’s Incredibly easy to use. A few content bits and bobs still need to be sorted, Emily is onto it, but all in all I couldn’t be happier. Let’s start with Aunties 101 aunties.co.nz/pages/about-th… Enjoy!
For those who were here 10 yrs ago when I met Moe. A huge part of the Aunties now, our chairperson. 3 degrees to her name, heading to a doctorate, and part of the Aunties Whānau. This is her success, her drive, her power. Starting tomorrow as lecturer in social work at TWOA. ❤️
In this time, where we are in a financial hole, as are many NGOs + impacts of govt policies directly affect the whānau women in v damaging ways, nothing has given me greater joy than our new website. @bluevibestudio Made with love and care. Enjoy. aunties.co.nz
We have a new website! This incredible new look is thanks to artist Fern Grant and website creator Jason @bluevibestudio Check it out at aunties.co.nz and let us know what you think.
It’s a bit of a good news day around here. Watch for the big reveal later. And meanwhile we send love and many squees to our dear friend, and board member, @irisshackleton who is currently having the time of her life in Florida as she watches her beloved @TBLightning play ❤️
What do you think our big announcement is going to be next week?

@aunties_the Have just increased my monthly donation 👍
Done and all mutuals please consider this. The Aunties are the best.
Attached is a financial update & urgent request for help. If everybody reading this set up a $5 a week / fortnight / month automatic donation we would be on a sustainable financial path. aunties.co.nz/donate-to-us givealittle.co.nz/org/theaunties We are so grateful to our supporters.
So @aunties_the need our help. If you set up a regular automatic payment of just $5 a week, it will make a huge difference. Plus it is tax deductible, so you will get 33.33% back every year. That’s a donation of $260 per year and $86 back (which you can donate back to them)

This day five years ago was fucking awful. And that is all I have to say about that.
Stunned and sad to hear about Newshub. Much aroha to all the wonderful people I worked with - this is awful xxx
Awful news. Ka aroha hoki ki ngā kaimahi. Media Insider: Breaking - Newshub set to close at end of June, staff devastated nzherald.co.nz/business/media…
Sending all the favs at Newshub loves … tough announcement 💔
Jesus Christ, I wanted the political journalism at Newshub to change its focus, NOT GET SHUT DOWN ENTIRELY This sucks (for them, and also the local information ecosystem)
@aunties_the So much potential just flickered out. 😢
Watching Fes's maiden speech in parliament; he invited me to come but I had already booked a trip to Samoa & said I'd catch him when I got back not knowing he shouted me out in his speech & he would leave us today. Crying rn, but smiling I got to see him in parliament 1 time. ❤️
Can’t stop crying for Fia and the girls. Life is such a fucking trip.
Efeso Collins is such a huge loss. So deeply principled, so values driven, so committed to his community. My heart is breaking for his whānau.
I keep thinking of how much Efeso Collins spoke about his wife and girls when we sat down for a chat on my radio show last year. He obviously loved them dearly, and I really feel for them. He radiated compassion, warmth, and a cheeky sense of humour. Such a loss.
What a huge loss. A brilliant, empathetic man with so much more to give. 😢 @efesocollins
