Over the next few Monday's I'll be doing a shout out to each of our amazing drop-off sites!! So to begin...

💛 A BIG SHOUT-OUT TO PLUNKET WHAKATĀNE! 💛

Today we want to give some love to one of our wonderful community partners, Whānau Āwhina Plunket Whakatāne 🥰

Not only are they doing such incredibly important mahi supporting pēpi, tamariki and whānau in our community, but they also generously open their doors as one of our donation drop-off locations!

If you’ve ever dropped off clothing donations to us at Plunket, there’s a good chance you’ve met their lovely team. They’re always so welcoming, helpful and genuinely happy to help — and we’re incredibly grateful to have them in our corner. 💛

Plunket plays such an important role in supporting whānau through those early years of parenting — providing practical support, trusted advice, connection and a friendly face when families need it most. The work they do reaches far beyond just weighing babies and checking milestones. They’re there to support the whole whānau.

And we love that our two organisations get to cross paths in such a practical way.

A bag of beautiful pre-loved clothing dropped off at Plunket can eventually become part of a carefully packed Clothing Project gift box, making its way to a whānau who needs a little extra support. 🧸📦💛

So to the wonderful team at Plunket Whakatāne — thank you!

Thank you for welcoming our donors, helping us spread the word about The Clothing Project, and for all the incredible mahi you do for our local whānau every single day.

We’re so lucky to have you as part of our community and our wider Clothing Project whānau. 💛

If you’re in Whakatāne and have quality children’s clothing to donate, you can drop it off at Plunket Whakatāne and they’ll make sure it gets to us. 👕👖🧸

Two community organisations, working together to support our tamariki and whānau. That’s what community is all about. 💛
