Daffodil Day is a crucial event for the Cancer Society, providing us with financial support for our essential services to New Zealanders living with Cancer, and to ensure the day runs smoothly with over 2000 volunteers we need volunteer area coordinators to support all our wonderful collectors.
This role will need to commit a few hours per week (outside of their day role) for the weeks leading up to Daffodil Day including time required for training (via zoom sessions), and for the street appeal on Friday 26th August and for some areas Saturday 27th August.
A current driver's licence and a car/vehicle will be needed as you will be required to drive around on Daffodil Day to ensure our collectors have their high visibility vests, daffodils, eftpos machines, buckets and receive guidance for their roles. You will also be completing our banking, picking up and dropping off resources.
You will need to have either a laptop, home PC or device i.e. ipad or similar so you can access our software system, which is the platform for managing collector shifts and relevant information, so you will also be confident in adapting to software systems.
In the first instance and/or for more detailed information, please email your interest including your best contact number to Sudha Bhana Manager Volunteering sbhana@akcansoc.org.nz

Question: would any good neighbour own a scanner, live nearby that could instead come to my place and scan it for a microchip? The cat is quite friendly and it loves pats but it just freaked out as soon as it saw the pet cage😔
