Robert Harris Botany cafés are going pink
Some East Auckland eateries will be blushing this month to back the Breast Cancer Foundation NZ.
Franchise owners Song Yu, Maggie Yang and Sohel Chimbaiwala's Robert Harris cafes in Botany will be decked in pink throughout May to support the foundation's biggest fundraising campaign, the Pink Ribbon Breakfast.
The coffee bars will display donation buckets, QR codes for digital donating and merchandise for sale.
Limited edition Pink Ribbon Breakfast reusable cups can be bought for $13 with all profits going to the foundation.
The cafes will host an all-day Pink Ribbon Breakfast on Friday.
The value of every coffee ordered with an item from the breakfast menu will be donated to the foundation.
Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
