Queenstown’s Baskets of Blessing volunteer organisation provides a platform coordinating generous donations of products, time and money to deliver unexpected gift baskets and frozen meal/food packs to locals struggling from unexpected life predicaments. Those impacted range across all ages, socio-economic groups and cultures. All recipients are nominated anonymously via the website and actioned without vetting or judgement. Increasingly, local individuals and families are facing incredible challenges, typically without family or support networks. Recent examples of support has been extended to victims of house-fires, suicides, paragliding accidents, families impacted by vehicle accidents, a terminal illness diagnosis and/or a sudden death. Their purpose is to build a strong, supportive community through gestures of love and kindness.
