• Setting up and visiting sites in your area to ensure everything is running smoothly throughout the two collection days.   
• Banking the money collected in your area. We provide banking bags to make the process easy.

You are required to attend one information session – this may be held in person or virtually (details TBA). Collection sites are provided but we really appreciate any suggestions for good areas to book.   
We are more than happy to provide references afterwards.  

This is an opportunity not to be missed to gain valuable experience in the not-for-profit sector and make a real difference in the lives of New Zealand’s animals.

Craftsmen wooden lounge chair

Scott from Morningside

This is a very sturdily built lounge chair in the craftsman style. American oak. I was going to recover it in deer hide and make it a focal point of my furniture. However, have moved and no longer fits. Great project or as is. Either way it's a very nice piece.

Price: $20
