Help us TOW our Pink Caravan (Breast Cancer Foundation NZ)

Talia from Breast Cancer Foundation NZ - Pink Caravan Education & Awareness

Kia Ora,

We are needing a volunteer to help tow our Pink Caravan, also known as Pinkie. She is a vital part of Breast Cancer Foundation NZ’s community health education and awareness program and travels around NZ with our nurses.

We need someone to help tow in the Manawatu-Whanganui region from Monday, 21 November – Friday, 25 November 2022. She needs to be dropped at sites (such as supermarkets or health centers) at 830am and then picked up again at 3pm. A couple of days or the whole week.

Please let us know if you can help! It would be much appreciated :)

If you are able to help or had any questions, please email Talia at taliac@bcf.org.nz or call 093041225 x 212.

Thank you.

Poll: Should the government levy industries that contribute to financial hardship?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

As reported in the Post, there’s a $30 million funding gap in financial mentoring. This has led to services closing and mentors stepping in unpaid just to keep helping people in need 🪙💰🪙

One proposed solution? Small levies on industries that profit from financial hardship — like banks, casinos, and similar companies.

So we want to hear what you think:
Should the government ask these industries to contribute?
