Pink Ribbon Appeal Volunteers Needed: 13-14 October 2017
We are desperately short of volunteers to collect for the annual Pink Ribbon Appeal which is happening on Friday 13 and Saturday 14 October. Last year we were only operating at about 60% and I am sure we could do much better. We need more hands to collect and request that you register and ask friends and family to lend a helping hand. Blokes are more than welcome - remember men can contract breast cancer too.
Sig up now at www.pinkribbonvolunteer.co.nz... or if you have any questions phone 0508 105 105 or email pinkribbon@bcf.org.nz or me at susiemcc@xtra.co.nz
Many thanks

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?
-
59.4% Yes, supporting people is important!
-
26.3% No, individuals should take responsibility
-
14.3% ... It is complicated
