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: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.
Do you think NZ should follow suit? Vote in our poll and share your thoughts below.

What would you do if it was your job to fix Hamilton's CBD?
More alcohol restrictions, more lighting, busking rule changes and a whole lot of lobbying - these are some ways Hamilton leaders want to sort out the CBD.
Crime and anti-social behaviour in the area has been in the spotlight after recent news of a man defecating in the street near a city pub and another who flipped tables out the back of a bar after being found scrounging cigarette butts and asked to leave.
What would you do if it was your job to fix Hamilton's CBD? Tell us your reasons in the comments (adding NFP if you don't want your words used in print).
