OUR GO DRY JULY PROGRAM (2022) IS ALMOST DONE
OUR GO DRY JULY PROGRAM (2022) IS ALMOST DONE
The GO DRY JULY program is supported by people who accept the challenge of going without alcohol for the month of July, hence the name GO DRY JULY.
In recognition of their abstinence the participants solicit donations from family, friends, colleagues, business houses, and organisations in return for their commitment (and donations) to the fundraising program.
We are so close to the finish line for our GO DRY JULY, but there is still time to encourage more financial support.
Thanks to all of the very kind people that have supported us with their donations. If you are one of those people, you have our gratitude and respect.
Currently, we have raised $1200, but with further support we would like to reach the sum of $1800. The money is so vital for the work we undertake getting the message out to all the men of New Zealand on the subject of prostate cancer.
The Prostate Cancer Foundation relies on these funds along with sponsorship, business donations, bequests from estates, and any other funding opportunity we can sight.
Any donation amount is appreciated and will help make a difference to the lives of people affected by prostate cancer in practical and tangible ways.
All donations will be recognised and those over $5.00 will receive a receipt for tax purposes, just click one the links below, you choose.

Poll: Would you want an unconventional funeral?
Funerals can cost as much as $22,000 and the planning can be stressful especially at a time when loved ones are grieving. Some New Zealanders are re-imagining funerals by making their own coffin or having a relaxed ceremony at home. Would you want a less traditional funeral? Share your thoughts below.

Lest we forget...

'Laser-sharp focus' on eye research
The Vision Research Foundation New Zealand exists to move beyond the safe and incremental, to attract the funding and knowledge needed to make life-changing discoveries, and to unlock the potential medical talent shut out by inequity.
Professor Helen Danesh-Meyer (pictured below), its Scientific Director, started the VRF in 2022 with the support of a generous philanthropist.
In June 2023 they set up the Vision Research Foundation Fund at Momentum Waikato, to grow and diversify its income streams and provide a longer-term investment gateway for its current and potential donors.
Good vision and eye health are precious, as our eyes connect us to the world and are a window into our health. We will all be impacted by vision-related disorders at some stage of our lives, whether for ourselves or our family and friends, and we all face neurological and degenerative conditions as we age.
