🧸 ONE WEEK LEFT to donate to our Soft Toy Drive! 🧸

Our Soft Toy Drive is still running at your local library, but there’s only one week left to get your donations in!

📅 Donations close Saturday 5 September

Soft toys can be brand new or preloved (within reason, of course!). If you have a loved soft toy that’s ready for a new home, we’d love to give it another chance to bring some comfort and joy. ❤️

Simply bring your soft toy donations to the Library side of Te Atatū Peninsula Community Hub, and we’ll collect them all together to donate to Te Āhuru Mōwai o Aotearoa – Māngere Refugee Resettlement Centre.

Every donation, big or small, can help make someone feel a little more at home. 🧸💕

If you’ve been meaning to donate, this is your reminder! 👀
