CAB Volunteers fundraising for Sweet Louise!

Hira Siddiqui from Citizens Advice Bureau Pakuranga/Eastern Manukau

🎀 October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month. 🎀

CAB volunteers at Pakuranga and Botany are fundraising for Sweet Louise.

Sweet Louise is a charity that offers practical and emotional support for men and women living with incurable breast cancer.

October is a time to reflect on those we love and those impacted by breast cancer. It’s also a chance to bring hope, care, and support to those who need it most. 🌸

Thank you for standing with us and helping us raise awareness of metastatic breast cancer this Breast Cancer Awareness Month. Together, we bring light, care, and hope.

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?
