Celebrating leaders of volunteers in Katikati!

Angela Wallace from Volunteering Services

To mark International Volunteer Managers Day on we held a morning tea with a bunch of Katikati leaders of volunteers.
It was inspiring to hear everyone's passion for their mahi, and our mini-workshop on 'Crafting your elevator pitch' was well received!

There are 2 elevators in Katikati so watch out if you ride one with one of these fantastic people! You will find yourself blown away by their elevator pitch and before you know it you'll be volunteering with their group!

Looking forward to bringing this workshop to Waihi Beach, Te Puke and Tauranga in the weeks to come!

Poll: Have you ever been bullied?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

People associate bullying with children in schools, but it can actually stretch beyond childhood to workplaces or neighbourhoods.

This Friday is Pink Shirt Day, which began in Canada in 2007 when two students took a stand against homophobic bullying after a new student was harassed for wearing pink. People across the globe are now encouraged to wear pink on this day to take a stand against bullying and promote inclusivity.

Have you or your whānau ever experienced bullying? Share your thoughts on Pink Shirt Day below.
