Aroha for Christchurch

Written by The Trade Me team in General at 3:00pm, Fri 22 Mar 2019

Today we’ve launched Aroha for Christchurch – a range of practical and financial ways you can support our community.

Gift something to people who need a hand via the Aroha Store, donate to The Federation of Islamic Associations of NZ, or bid on auctions that kind Kiwis have set up to help.

We’re matching every dollar spent via the Aroha Store and our donation tool.  More...

• longer listing duration of 90 days (promotional features also last for 90 days)
• a new reduced listing fee if you need to continue your listing after 90 days. More...
