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.
⚠️ DOGS DIE IN HOT CARS. If you love them, don't leave them. ⚠️
It's a message we share time and time again, and this year, we're calling on you to help us spread that message further.
Did you know that calls to SPCA about dogs left inside hot cars made up a whopping 11% of all welfare calls last summer? This is a completely preventable issue, and one which is causing hundreds of dogs (often loved pets) to suffer.
Here are some quick facts to share with the dog owners in your life:
👉 The temperature inside a car can heat to over 50°C in less than 15 minutes.
👉 Parking in the shade and cracking windows does little to help on a warm day. Dogs rely on panting to keep cool, which they can't do in a hot car.
👉 This puts dogs at a high risk of heatstroke - a serious condition for dogs, with a mortality rate between 39%-50%.
👉 It is an offence under the Animal Welfare Act to leave a dog in a hot vehicle if they are showing signs of heat stress. You can be fined, and prosecuted.
SPCA has created downloadable resources to help you spread the message even further. Posters, a flyer, and a social media tile can be downloaded from our website here: www.spca.nz...
We encourage you to use these - and ask your local businesses to display the posters if they can. Flyers can be kept in your car and handed out as needed.
This is a community problem, and one we cannot solve alone. Help us to prevent more tragedies this summer by sharing this post.
On behalf of the animals - thank you ❤️
Worst Xmas ever?
There's a a lot of planning that goes into Christmas day and sometimes things just don't go to plan. But it can be a good thing - a family mishap or hilarious memory that you can laugh about in Christmases to come.
