Extravagant Christmas 2018 - Aroha Kai Kete

$600 of $3,000 goal
Given by 6 generous donors in 5 weeks

We are taking EC18 from RISK Church to homes of Stokes Valley people & families in need, bearing aroha, gifts & kai on 23/24 December.

Wellington

RISK Church has always hosted Extravagant Christmas (EC) on site at our Evans Street venue,

but for 2018 we are heading out to homes instead, bearing aroha, gifts & kai on 23/24 December.

Our hope is that our Stokes Valley community will help us to connect with people & families genuinely in need and even support this venture financially if possible. We want to bless as many as we can with good food and gifts, that they might enjoy a memorable Christmas in their own homes. Times are tough and often the budget just won't stretch to cover the rising costs of food, let alone gifts at a time we all want to be special.

Together we can make this happen.

If you can give a koha towards this community mission, it would be amazing. Some people have asked if they can contribute practically so we are also accepting brand new children's toys/books etc and new suitable gift items for adults. New Christmas treat food and supplies for hampers is also appreciated and all items can be dropped off to:

RISK Church, 23 Evans Street, Stokes Valley, Sundays 9.30am - 12.30pm, Thursdays 2.30pm-5.30pm (down side entrance), and various other times during the week. Check first 04 563 7936.

Money will go towards buying gifts for recipients, food & supplies for hampers, quality spot prizes such as technology, appliances. Money left over will go towards next year's Extravagant Christmas.
