The gifts distributed as a result of these contributions are sent to all battlefronts where New Zealanders are engaged, and continue to be very gratefully received by the men who appreciate the kind remembrances from the homeland.

This month’s donations will be devoted to the New Zealanders in the Far East, Egypt, Palestine and Mesopotamia.
