OUR GO DRY JULY PROGRAM (2022) IS ALMOST DONE
OUR GO DRY JULY PROGRAM (2022) IS ALMOST DONE
The GO DRY JULY program is supported by people who accept the challenge of going without alcohol for the month of July, hence the name GO DRY JULY.
In recognition of their abstinence the participants solicit donations from family, friends, colleagues, business houses, and organisations in return for their commitment (and donations) to the fundraising program.
We are so close to the finish line for our GO DRY JULY, but there is still time to encourage more financial support.
Thanks to all of the very kind people that have supported us with their donations. If you are one of those people, you have our gratitude and respect.
Currently, we have raised $1200, but with further support we would like to reach the sum of $1800. The money is so vital for the work we undertake getting the message out to all the men of New Zealand on the subject of prostate cancer.
The Prostate Cancer Foundation relies on these funds along with sponsorship, business donations, bequests from estates, and any other funding opportunity we can sight.
Any donation amount is appreciated and will help make a difference to the lives of people affected by prostate cancer in practical and tangible ways.
All donations will be recognised and those over $5.00 will receive a receipt for tax purposes, just click one the links below, you choose.

⚠️ 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 ❤️
