Auckland cafe for homeless struggling to survive, may close without $60k help

Auckland cafe for homeless struggling to survive, may close without $60k help Wednesday, March 10, 2021 Nick Truebridge for RNZ A community cafe on Auckland s Karangahape Rd may be forced to close if it cannot raise $60,000 by the end of the month.   For more than a decade, Merge Cafe has been a space where the city s homeless can grab a tea or coffee, a hot meal and have a chat with a peer support worker. For months it has been running at a loss, due largely to the cancellation of key fundraising events on the back of Auckland s repeated Covid-19 lockdowns. One regular at Merge, Richard Turipa, said the cafe saved his life after he was homeless.
