📣 FINAL CALL FOR VOLUNTEER STREET COLLECTORS IN CAMBRIDGE 📣

The Team from SPCA Morrinsville & Cambridge - Op Shops

The animals of SPCA need YOU! We need more volunteer collectors in Cambridge, can you help?

Can you commit to even a couple of hours on Friday 30th or Saturday 31st May? ❤️ SPCA will be taking to the streets and asking the public to help Fill the Bucket, with all donations going towards the thousands of animals in our care around New Zealand.

We are still looking for street collectors in Cambridge - so if you can spare any time on either (or both) days, we want to hear from you! Volunteer sign-ups close THIS SUNDAY, so please sign up online today: www.spca.nz... or email events@spca.nz with any questions. Thank you on behalf of the animals!🙏

Kia pai from Sharing the Good Stuff

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.

Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.

Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?

Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
