Donation for a photoshoot
I have a fundraising special up for grabs!
Heart Kids NZ help supports kiwi kids born with heart defects, the highest occurring serious birth defect in New Zealand.
A very good friend of mine is a mother of a Heart Warrior, and I don't know how she has kept it together. When this fundraiser came up I felt it was the least I could do to show my support for them. So, I'm taking the plunge and we have a fundraising goal to meet.
To help raise funds for this amazing cause I'm offering 10 one-hour photoshoots for $50 each.
To secure your photoshoot visit this link, hscwellington19.everydayhero.com... donate your $50 and leave a comment that includes 'photoshoot fundraiser'. Make sure you send me a message to let me know you have done it so I can give you a voucher to confirm your photoshoot. You can use it for yourself or give it to someone as a gift. Message me if you have any questions about this fundraiser or the photoshoot. All high resolution images from the shoot are included. See www.facebook.com... for some of my work.
Vouchers will expire 31 December 2019.

Some Choice News!
DOC is rolling out a new tool to help figure out what to tackle first when it comes to protecting our threatened species and the things putting them at risk.
Why does this matter? As Nikki Macdonald from The Post points out, we’re a country with around 4,400 threatened species. With limited time and funding, conservation has always meant making tough calls about what gets attention first.
For the first time, DOC has put real numbers around what it would take to do everything needed to properly safeguard our unique natural environment. The new BioInvest tool shows the scale of the challenge: 310,177 actions across 28,007 sites.
Now that we can see the full picture, it brings the big question into focus: how much do we, as Kiwis, truly value protecting nature — and what are we prepared to invest to make it happen?
We hope this brings a smile!
