Big Morning Tea Shout for Auckland’s frontline workers

Ripu Bhatia Reporter from Manukau Courier

A charity has launched a campaign to shout morning tea for over 1000 frontline community workers in Auckland.

Applause was launched in the last lockdown to give people a way to show gratitude to frontline workers.

The Big Auckland Morning Tea Shout aims to put money in the pockets of the hospitality industry.

Applause director Jen Deber said community service workers often go unrecognised.

To donate Kiwis can head to donate.applause.charity before October 29.
