The Warehouse and Pedal for Plunket
This popular fundraising event organised by The Warehouse raised over $450,000 in 2017 with cyclists riding the length of New Zealand for Plunket. Funds raised purchased regional event kits to support and equip Plunket people for greater community engagement across Aotearoa. It also provided seed funding for new support groups, including groups for refugee and migrant families with resources in other languages, and support for fathers, grandparents who are parenting, and more.
This year Pedal for Plunket has changed gear with The Warehouse holding in-store events using stationary cycles and donations generated by all its 92 stores around New Zealand between 6—26 March 2019.
Customers can donate a gold coin to ride a kilometre in support of Plunket or add a dollar to their purchase at The Warehouse stores nationwide.
Funds raised from Pedal for Plunket 2019 will help provide baby essentials such as nappies, beanies and warm clothing, to families who need a little extra support across New Zealand.

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!
