Many thanks to those who have supported the Give-a-Little campaign for the Gloriavale Leavers over the past few months. We have been able to help so many leavers in this time, and we couldn't have done it without the backing of the public.
Don't forget we are a registered charity, and you can claim back a portion of your donation from the last financial year.
We have now created a general Charity Page which gives us the ability to take public donations AND run fundraisers for specific projects. Here's the new link
https://givealittle.co.nz/org/gloriavale-leavers-support-trust. However, the page you donated on will remain active so you can access the information.
We have also recently created a group called Friends of the Trust, and we will be sending out newsletters with updates on the Trust's activities and families. May's newsletter includes a poem from a Gloriavale Leaver, comparing the Covid-19 situation to his life in the Community.
If you are interested in receiving the newsletter, please email us directly on info@gloriavaleleavers.org.nz and we will add you to the database.
Thanks again for all the love and support shown to the Gloriavale Leavers. They are extremely grateful,
Regards, Liz Gregory (Trust Manager and Support Worker)
