Operation Christmas Cauldron
🎄 Fill the cauldron, fill a family's Christmas! From Sunday 1 November to Tuesday 8 December we're collecting non-perishable food, Christmas treats, personal care items and new, wrapped gifts with an age tag (0–13). Everything goes into around 100 Christmas hampers for West Auckland whānau, through our partners Family Action and the WALSH Trust. Drop off at one of our legendary partner businesses, or contact us at info@westiewitcheshelpinghands.co.nz or 027 463 0397 to arrange a collection. 🧙♀️✨

"I just wanted to say thank you so much for one of your care packages. I was given one this morning.
I’m a mum of four on my own, and it has weighed heavily on me this week knowing I wouldn’t be able to get them Easter eggs. Then this morning I was given your package, and I am so incredibly grateful. I feel truly blessed to be able to surprise the kids this weekend with hot chocolate, Easter eggs, and tacos.
Words can’t express how thankful and blessed I feel."
