Ever wondered what we do with clothes we can't sell?
We donate them!
Last week, we sent 2 boxes to Rarotonga. These are clothes that have small imperfections, like a stain, that mean they can't be sold as new.
Instead of throwing them away, we set those clothes aside for donation!
โจโค๏ธ COMMUNITY KINDNESS IN ACTION โค๏ธโจ
Yesterday, the Family Protection Service team had the privilege of meeting a wonderful couple from New Zealand, Allan and Alison Howie, who are currently enjoying a holiday here in beautiful Rarotonga. ๐ดโ๏ธ
With generous hearts and a genuine desire to give back, they donated two boxes of brand-new adult clothing to support vulnerable individuals and families within our community. ๐๐๐
Allan Howie, who is a Supply Chain Manager for Cloke, a well-known New Zealand clothing brand. Through this generous contribution, Allan and Alison have demonstrated the true spirit of compassion, kindness, and community service.
On behalf of the Ministry of Internal Affairs and the Family Protection Service, we extend our heartfelt MEITAKI ATUPAKA to Allan and Alison for their generosity and support. May God continue to bless you both during your time in Rarotonga and in all that you do. ๐โค๏ธ
๐บ If you see Allan and Alison around the island, please give them a warm Cook Islands smile, share some aroa, and say โMeitaki Atupakaโ for their thoughtful donation. ๐บ
