Volunteers Desperately Needed for Pink Ribbon Breast Cancer Appeal
Hi there I am the Hastings Area Coordinator for the Pink Ribbon Appeal and this year (possibly because it falls in the school holidays) we are desperately short of collectors for Hastings - so far we have only 95 and we need a further 79 - I understand Havelock North has plenty!
If you are home for the school holidays (as a parent or grand-parent) how about bringing your cherubs along for two hours. Imagine the confidence they will gain from helping their parents / grandparents make time to help others.
To those of you who have yet to decide (or have decided but not yet signed up) it would be wonderful if you could sign up soon. I also encourage you all to talk to neighbours, friends, family and get them on board too. You can sign up several ways: on-line or by phone: • If you are already registered, go to www.pinkribbonvolunteer.co.nz... and log in and then sign up for the times and locations you prefer • If you are a new volunteer, still go to www.pinkribbonvolunteer.co.nz... however you will need to register and then sign up for the times and locations you prefer • If you prefer you could also call the free line 0508 105 105 and someone in National Office will help you register, or • You could email them on pinkribbon@bcf.org.nz Of course, if you need any advice / assistance at any time, I am happy to help: • Email – susiemcc@xtra.co.nz In the last three years we have increased our take by 23% - wouldn’t it be fantastic if, this year , we could make it 30% for the Hastings area!

Solve This Riddle or Be Left Scratching Your Head!
With pointed fangs, I sit and wait;
with piercing force, I crunch out fate.
I grab victims, proclaiming might,
and physically join with a single bite.
