Dave and Denise Tims

Randwick Park, New Zealand

Dave and Denise (Ngāti Porou, Ngāti Raukawa, Ngāpuhi) Tims live in Randwick Park, Manurewa, South Auckland NZ. They have now served for over 35 years in ministry with Youth for Christ, Te Ora Hou and UNOH (15+ years). Both are trained primary school teachers. Denise is working on a Masters in Theology (Christian Community-led Development) and Dave manages two locally-led social enterprises. D & D have three adult children, two daughters-in-law and two moko (grandchildren).

UNOH’s role and D & D’s role, is to see the ‘God-image’ in every person, to name that image and to encourage that image to find a space and place to flourish. It’s in this expression that God’s Kingdom is celebrated and neighbour-hooding occurs with each other, with Christ and with the land.

On this journey, D & D have met some incredible people who share a common concern for Randwick Park and have pulled together to make the neighbourhood an even better place to live. They believe in this cause and that life can be different. They encourage changing the narrative and living out the saying; “Become the change you want to see in the hood.” No matter what the narrative or story, there is goodness in any neighbourhood and in every person. Words create Worlds. No matter whether you wear a business suit or a gang patch, each one of us has something good within, and that goodness, once acknowledged and shared, can change the world.

Dave spends his week

Involved with a lot of admin for UNOH and the Social Enterprises

TAX DEDUCTIBLE DONATIONS
UNOH has the capacity to provide tax-deductibility for most donations. We are happy to provide tax-deductibility wherever we can. However, where donations are made without the requirement for tax-deductibility, UNOH has more flexibility in the use these donations. For example, we cannot use donations that have been given tax-deductibility, for activities that might be interpreted as “evangelism”, not all work in poverty relief is considered eligible for tax-deductibility, especially where we might be assisting individuals rather than doing community development.

As our workers in Australia are considered religious workers, we are not able to issue a tax deductible receipt for donations which are for payment of living expenses of Australian workers.

If you do not normally claim such donations as tax deductions when you do your income tax return, or if you do not earn enough the have to pay tax, then nominating NO for tax-deductibility is a good choice for UNOH and no cost to you. Moreover, you might simply choose to forego tax-deductibility in order to provide greater flexibility for UNOH in spending your donation.

NZ Donations
For those in NZ who want to donate to UNOH in NZ dollars, if you donate through UNOH Australia, you will incur a fee for foreign exchange and will not be able to claim a tax receipt because the donation will go to Australia (not NZ).
