Jammies in June generosity

Jammies in June is an initiative that provides warm pajamas, blankets, beanies, socks and slippers to children in need across South Auckland. It was started eight years ago by the Middlemore Foundation.

This year, Barfoot & Thompson Orewa was a drop off point for the ‘jammies’ and the company says the response from the community was heart-warming.

Barfoots Orewa sent off nearly 100 pairs of pajamas, as well as socks and blankets.
