Get ready to jump on board with Pack the Bus 2024 Horowhenua!

Christmas can be a challenging time for many families in our district, but together, we can make it brighter. 

From 2 to 6 December,  More FM Horowhenua, Horowhenua District Council, and our amazing partners are teaming up to bring holiday cheer by collecting new, unwrapped toys and non-perishable food for those in need.

Let’s make this year’s Pack the Bus the biggest and best yet! Together, we can create lasting memories, share love, and make Christmas magical for everyone in our community.

After the Christmas Parade on Saturday 7 December, the bus will be parked outside the Levin Domain, where you can drop off non-perishable food items or unwrapped gifts. Whether you’re an individual, business, school, or organisation, your contribution will help make the season special for those who need it most.

The bus will visit locations across the region, with all donations going to local charities Birthright Levin, Women’s Refuge and the Levin Interchurch Foodbank to spread joy even further.
