So good to have the return and recovery of the Orange Sky van ..

Whaea Debs has been found! 🚐🧡✨

We are so relieved to share that our Tāmaki Makaurau van, Whaea Debs, has been recovered and returned to us! A massive thank you to everyone who shared our post, kept their eyes open, and rallied around us — you’ve shown the true power of community, and we couldn’t be more grateful.

While we are thrilled to have Debs back, the van has sustained some damage and will need repairs before she can hit the road again. We know how much our friends and whānau rely on this service every week, so our team is actively working on alternative solutions to keep laundry and shower services going while she’s out of action.

In the meantime, our shifts at the following locations are running as usual:

📍 Maranga Fanau | 116 Browns Road, Manurewa, 2102, Auckland
🗓️ Mon – Fri | 10am – 2pm

📍 Turuki Health | 2/32 Canning Crescent, Māngere, Auckland, 2022
🗓️ Mon, Tues, Weds & Fri | 10am - 2pm
Thurs | 10am – 12pm

📍 Auckland City Mission | 140 Hobson Street, Auckland
🗓️ Tue, Wed & Thu | 10:30am – 1pm
Mon & Fri pop-ups start next week 10.30am - 1pm

Thank you all for your patience, support, and kindness as we work through these next steps together.

We are building a small community garden this week to bring education and food resources to our local community and our Foodbank - learning how to grow vegetables, and eating them.
Looking for volunteers to help out with our weekly programme.

Our partner service Orange Sky van has been stolen.
Our Homeless Service tomorrow will not have laundry or shower facilities.
We will still be running our usual Homeless food and Medical services.
But next week the amazing Orange Sky will have another solution bringing laundry services to Glenfield.
Thank you to Orange Sky for their continued support for our people.
If you see their below van, please report it to Police 105.

Thank you KiwiHarvest for all your support with food donations - what an excellent partnership to support our local community!

Every week, Glenfield Salvation Army provides care and practical help to people in our community through food parcels, and other essential support, and we’re proud to play a small part in the important work they do.

“KiwiHarvest has been an important partnership, working together to distribute rescued food within our community and help provide weekly donations for people requesting food support."

Knowing our partnership is helping put food on the table for people in our community means so much to us.

Thank you to the wonderful Glenfield Salvation Army team for the care and compassion they show every day. Together, we’re making a positive difference. 💚
