NZ Red Cross Street Appeal 2021
From the 15th to the 21st of March NZ Red Cross is holding our annual street appeal throughout New Zealand. On Friday the 19th and Saturday the 20th of March we will be hitting the streets of Hastings, Havelock North, Taradale, Napier and Central Hawkes Bay to ask you to dig deep and help to support the vulnerable in your community.
We have had a number of awesome volunteers come forward to collect but we have a couple of last minute sites we are keen to fill if you can give us an hour or two of your time.
If you are available for any of these shifts please either email amber.mcarthur@redcross.org.nz or give the Service Centre a call on 06 878 8438.

Poll: Is it rude to talk on the phone on a bus?
