Irene Rama is a volunteer
at the Auckland City Mission.
Today she worked an 11-hour shift
so other mission volunteers
could have the day off.
But Irene doesn't mind,
she says her work is a privilege.
She spoke to Anzac Pikia.
Another year, another job.
Rama's been working here
for a while now.
She's passionate about giving
to those less fortunate.
The City Mission survives
on people's donations
and Christmas is only
one major event of theirs.
In the last few weeks,
the mission has been
inundated with people.
The question is,
will Rama work again next Christmas?
So Christmas is just about over,
but not for the mission.
They now look forward to 2013.
Anzac Pikia, Te Karere.
