Successful Fundraising for Sweet Louise
💕 Last Friday, the volunteers at Botany and Pakuranga CABs held a fundraiser for Sweet Louise. Sweet Louise supports men and women with advanced (incurable) breast cancer.
🌸 We enjoyed a shared lunch with quite a pink theme! The baking quiz wasn't as easy as some thought with the question about Snickerdoodle biscuits catching people out. But we had fun. 🙂 Many thanks to the Social Team for making sure it was an occasion to remember. 👏
Grateful thanks to our sponsors and supporters and a big shoutout to freshchoicehalfmoonbay for donating a very generous hamper for the occasion.
We would also like to thank Carolyn Bruce Designs - Statement Jewelry for donating some of her gorgeous work for our fundraiser. 💕
We were thrilled to raise $1183. 🙏

We want to know: Should mining projects like this move ahead?

Auckland, why are we so excited about a new store? 🚗🛒
I think we’ve all seen the traffic notices and headlines about the new IKEA by now!
So here’s the question: why do we get so excited when a new store opens? Convenience? Curiosity? A reason for a weekend outing? We’d love to hear your thoughts!
