It's Time! Dementia Waikato volunteers will be out in force this week to collect your donations across the Waikato.

Dementia New Zealand Affiliates serve 70% of New Zealand’s population; Alzheimer’s New Zealand, seeks funds in the Waikato despite having no members that provide services here (nor in Auckland, Wellington, Canterbury, Lakes district, or Hawke’s Bay). If you want your donation used for local dementia services, Dementia Waikato is the only charity that will use your donation locally - we collect donations face-to-face and prioritise services rather than fancy marketing guff.
