Graeme Dingle Foundation Fundraiser
Hey guys,
Just thought I'd try here to generate some interest.
My boss has signed up for the Drop Your Boss 2020 fundraiser for the Graeme Dingle Foundation and we're looking to raise more money to help GDF run some amazing programmes within our community!
As an added incentive for our store, it means he jumps off the Sky Tower if we reach our target which he isn't so keen on.
We have a givealittle page running that is quite frankly looking very sad, and we'd love if our community got involved and helped to give back to a charity that has supported our kids in schools for quite a while now.
Even if we don't reach our goal, 100% of donations goes directly to the Graeme Dingle Foundation and is well worth it!
If you're interested in getting involved and want to know more about the good the Graeme Dingle Foundation does, head to:
www.dinglefoundation.org.nz...
And donate at:
Givealittle.co.nz/fundraiser/ever-wanted-to-push-your-boss-off-the-sky-tower
(All donations over $5 are tax deductible).
It's really easy to donate online, and every dollar helps. Thank you!
Poll: Should the government levy industries that contribute to financial hardship?
As reported in the Post, there’s a $30 million funding gap in financial mentoring. This has led to services closing and mentors stepping in unpaid just to keep helping people in need 🪙💰🪙
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?
-
60.1% Yes, supporting people is important!
-
23.4% No, individuals should take responsibility
-
16.5% ... It is complicated
