Buckets of Good

The Team from Red Cross - Napier Service Centre

New Zealand Red Cross’ annual appeal this year is all about doing ‘Buckets of Good’ and helping cross off items of basic human need from our bucket list. It's your chance to not only make a life changing difference to people impacted by emergencies and conflict but also potentially cross off something from your own bucket list!

Use the link below to create your unique online fundraising page, set your challenge, and share with your friends. Raise $500 or more for New Zealand Red Cross from the 1st to the 31st of March and you'll enter the draw to win some amazing bucket list prizes*!


Are you a thrill seeker who’s always wanted to bungy jump at some of the most stunning locations across the motu? Are you an animal lover and have always wanted to swim with dolphins? Want to take that well deserved break you’ve been waiting for and travel on the interislander? Or do you need something even more extreme, and you would love to try skydiving? Our 'Buckets of Good’ appeal is your chance to make a difference for people in need, and you could go in the draw to win a bucket list item of your own!

Poll: Have you ever been bullied?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

People associate bullying with children in schools, but it can actually stretch beyond childhood to workplaces or neighbourhoods.

This Friday is Pink Shirt Day, which began in Canada in 2007 when two students took a stand against homophobic bullying after a new student was harassed for wearing pink. People across the globe are now encouraged to wear pink on this day to take a stand against bullying and promote inclusivity.

Have you or your whānau ever experienced bullying? Share your thoughts on Pink Shirt Day below.

Type 'Not For Print' if you wish your comments to be excluded from the Conversations column of your local paper.
