Club member Savy Govender and president Bini Homavazir distributed 72 pictorial dictionaries for Year 4 students and pyjamas and socks to Kingsford Primary School in Mangere East at a special assembly on June 23.
On June 29 the club distributed more than 70 pairs of pyjamas and socks and 70 dictionaries to the students of Leabank Primary School in Manurewa.
Homavazir says that the teachers identify the students who need help and send in the number/size/gender to buy accordingly and donate.
“A few weeks ago, we finished distributing merino wraps to Botany, Papakura and Pukekohe birthing centres,” Homavazir says.”
“We did food parcels and women’s refuge in December.”
