I’m so appreciative of the Cancer Society’s support and incredibly passionate about the research they fund. I hope by leaving a bequest, this will help cancer researchers find a cure.”
You can join Tanya in making the greatest gift of hope for those facing cancer in the future.

The people who share your space with you now
Make this time count
Listen and share your stories
Hear their beliefs of the world we live in
And let your own expand
Spend time doing with them
What matters now, there is the time
Embrace your children
Before the school and Uni term begin
Don’t wish for time to speed
Support their dreams and visions
For the present is the most valuable time

Looking for a registered charity to support? Your donation of $5, $50 or more to Migrant Action Trust will enable us to support more migrants and refugee whānau after lockdown.
Over the last few weeks, we've been reaching out to our Afghani whānau who are extremely distressed about the safety and survival of their loved ones in Afghanistan. Through the Action Station petition and letters to Government, Migrant Action Trust joined the urgent plea for New Zealand to take in substantially more refugees from Afghanistan.
As a registered charity supporting refugees from arrival to integration, Migrant Action Trust runs free English and computer tutorials, pre-employment support and community driver mentoring programmes.
Check out to pledge regularly or volunteer for Migrant Action Trust www.migrantactiontrust.org...
In the last three years, we have been delivering trauma-sensitive driver training for Afghani and other refugees to support their settlement process. Help refugees gain independence through Puketapapa Community Driving School givealittle.co.nz...

The government has poured cold water on the idea of the school holidays being moved, but we want to know what that means for parents. Many people have used up annual leave and sick days looking after the kids - how do you feel about the prospect of kids not going back to school until term 4, if restrictions last until October?
