There is a salvation army where spotlight is on te rapa road. Sallies is always a good cause.
Otherwise I am by the base and my mum is volunteering in a shop in tokoroa/putaruru where they raise money for the local cat rescue. I can store it until I see her next and take it out there. |

You could always ring Women's Refuge, they are always on the lookout for decent second hand clothing. ------------- Kelly, mum to DD, 19Jun06 (26wks 1lb15oz) DS1, 24Oct10 (32wks 4lb11oz) and DS2, 31Dec11 (32wks, 4lb11) http://lilypie.com">
