CAB Volunteer Awards!

Hira Siddiqui from Citizens Advice Bureau Pakuranga/Eastern Manukau

πŸ’› We celebrated our amazing volunteers last week with a delicious morning tea, beautifully organised by Botany Manager, Megan - complete with her homemade Matariki shortbread stars.

Each year, we present a few certificates to recognise volunteers who have made an outstanding contribution. These get spread around the volunteers from year to year. All of our volunteers are absolute stars!

The proceedings were ably MC’d by Board Chair, Richard - also a volunteer - seen here smiling happily out of each picture.

So top first and left to right, we have:

⭐ Linda: Volunteer of the Year plus Outstanding Success in content and design, providing dedicated commitment to managing our social media pages.
⭐ Brian: For providing support to Management and assisting in the training and mentoring of new members, providing presentations to Community meetings and compiling editorials for the Solutions column for the Eastern Times local paper.
⭐ Indira was presented with a Presentation pen box - with pens! - honouring her recent Life Membership of CAB - 10 years outstanding service to CAB.
⭐ Tina: For providing and presenting Maths Tuition workshops and supporting our Bureau in local community events.
⭐ Helen: For outstanding support of our Social Team, Coordinating and managing Volunteer Social Events and CAB meetings.

Congratulations to all of our fantastic volunteers! πŸ‘ πŸ‘
