Aroha Freezer

by Kerryn Olsen & Sally Betts

A new initiative has been started at Roncalli because of a need in our community. The ‘Aroha Freezer’ is a service project that aims to create meals and food for people in our parish community and the wider Timaru community. We have had many generous offers of donations of food and time so that we can get this initiative started.
