This week Helensville Citizens Advice Bureau received a grant of $5000 from the Lottery Grants Board.
Karen Rutherford the bureau’s Manager says “We receive funding from the Lottery Grants Board each year and it is greatly appreciated. This funding will help us continue to deliver a high quality service to the people of Helensville.
“Our trained volunteer interviewers can help people with information on almost any issue including consumer rights, employment issues, finance and tax, benefit entitlements, housing and tenancy, and much more. No problem is too big or too small.”
The Lottery Grants Board benefits the community by distributing the profits from state lotteries such as Lotto, Instant Kiwi, and Daily Keno. They are a major ongoing supporter of Citizens Advice Bureaux New Zealand Inc (CABNZ) and its 82 member bureau / branches.
CABNZ Chief Executive, Kerry Dalton, says, “We are grateful that with Lottery support we can continue providing free, confidential and impartial information, advice, advocacy and support which helps over half a million people nationally every year.”
