To those who have supported us in the past a very ‘big thank you😊’ This is a new initiative. We are asking our supporters to host a fundraising event in the month of August and to share the message with your whanau/family and friends. Here are some fundraising ideas-

· Host a ‘Dress yellow’ Work/ Home Day

· Hold a bake sale
· Organise a sausage sizzle, quiz night or movie night
· Host a morning/afternoon tea or dinner
· Dye your hair yellow/or wear a yellow wig and some are shaving their hair
· Mini walkathons/bikeathons and paintathons

Your event will help Paint August Yellow, raise critical funds needed to support the work of the Cancer Society and send a powerful message that no one should go through cancer alone.

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!

Poll: Would you participate in local initiatives aimed at stopping plastic from reaching our oceans?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

Volunteers will be scouring the foreshore, riverbanks, and islands for rubbish on Saturday the 13th as part of the Clean Up the Hutt event.

This initiative helps stop plastic from reaching our oceans and makes our waterways cleaner and safer for everyone.

We want to know: Should this be rolled out across all coastal cities in Aotearoa? And more importantly… would you get involved? 💚

Want the details? The Post has you covered.
