Are you planning to Run the City (Auckland Marathon) on 29th October?
Whatever distance you're planning to cover (5km, 11Km, Half-Marathon or Marathon), why not make every step count by joining Team Visionwest and fundraising for a great cause?
Despite their best efforts, thousands of Kiwis are struggling to put enough food on the table. Each week, Visionwest provides 400 families in urgent need with food - but we need your help. By fundraising for Visionwest you will help make sure no one misses out on the food they need.
Every donation will come direct to Visionwest and provide kai with kindness and dignity to families who really need it.

A big shout-out to the young people from Waitākere College who contributed to the "Boxes Full of the Goods” project and then gifted the boxes to our Whai Manaaki Kai food support service.
The Year 9 students collected of non-perishable food items and put them in boxes with handwritten messages of encouragement attached to them.
It was awesome to receive 142 food items and over 200 uplifting notes. Both the food and the notes were gratefully received by whānau receiving food support and a real encouragement to the Visionwest team.
Thanks Waitakere College and the Graeme Dingle Foundation Auckland who facilitated the project.
You guys are awesome, and your kindness really made a difference.

Encourage your work team or community group to be a Visionwest Secret Santa this Christmas
After a tough year, we know many West Auckland children will miss out on a Christmas gift this year – so we are already making plans to help.
If you are a business, school, or community group, you can join in and help too by making a donation, or by buying or collecting awesome new gifts and toys for children.
We'll make sure your gifts get to children who really need them through Visionwest's Christmas From The Heart which is running for the fifth year this December.
To find out more visit www.visionwest.org.nz/secretsanta or email sarah.frayne@visionwe#visionwestV#ChristmasFromTheHearto#visionwestsecretsantaecretsanta

Mental Health Awareness Week – 18 – 24 September
Five Ways, Five Days is the theme of this year’s Mental Health Awareness Week. At Visionwest, we’ve been focusing on ways to boost our mental health and wellbeing with a different activity each day.
We’ve already had two days of encouraging each other with conversation starters and encouragement cards, and a shared lunch at Koru Paihere (our Glengarry Rd site).
Check out the Mental Health Awareness Week website - mhaw.nz/ - for ways you can get involved – there are resources for individuals, parents, workplaces.
