Help our charity

Glen from Central Whangarei

So is anybody interested in helping our new charity?

Children with disability NZ?

And having the opportunity to learn. I spend a lot of time creating on computers.

This would be voluntary, but a good opportunity to increase your skill base.

I have access to a range of professional software including Canva, Adobe creative cloud, designer. Website software, office 365, and much more but I am only one person.

To help our new charity succeed we want to build our brand.

I would love to see us have a more educational YouTube page.

Does anybody want to start writing children's books?

I think I have the software, we would love books that include disabled children as the feature of the book.

I have a huge amount of abilities and a disability but really the abilities outweigh the disability.

So many ideas so much software so little time.

I have more than one computer and the capacity to teach and motivate.

I start late morning and work late into the night.

This would suit somebody able to learn and wanting to move forward and feel accomplished.

Personally, at the end of each day, I feel I have accomplished many things.

I have a home office not far from the Town Basin in a lovely bush setting ideal for being creative.

The person would work on a computer beside me in my home office and help me help others. a few hours a week, days or evenings.

3 cats and a dog will love to meet new people.

If interested please pm Glen McMillan

⚠️ DOGS DIE IN HOT CARS. If you love them, don't leave them. ⚠️

The Team from SPCA New Zealand

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 ❤️
