Say Thank You

Auckland Health Foundation

Have you received amazing hospital care?

You can say THANK YOU in your own special way, like Paul.

Grateful Auckland DHB stroke patient Paul Harvey chooses to fundraise for Auckland City Hospital’s stroke rehabilitation ward to help future patients receive the best possible care, and thank the dedicated team that gave him back his independence.

Paul was determined to turn his stroke into something positive: “I’ve found my cause, and I intend to keep working to help those who were vital in my recovery.”

If you’ve received amazing care through Auckland DHB and want to say ‘thank you’, you can donate, share your story or fundraise, like Paul.

Paul works with the Auckland Health Foundation, the official charity for Auckland DHB’s adult health services, to make his fundraising goals a reality – and make a difference. And you can too.

Donate now or be inspired by Paul to say ‘thank you’ in your own special way here.

Some Choice News!

Kia pai from Sharing the Good Stuff

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.

Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.

Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?

Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
