Private Manurewa foodbank facing homelessness

A walk-in care centre in Manurewa is calling on its community to help save it from closing.

Waka of Caring has given out free clothes, food parcels and hot meals from its base in Mcannalley Street for the past two years.

Founder Debbie Munroe who ran the charity from her home for eight years, says she wants to stay at that location.
