This week is National Volunteer Week!💙❤️
And whilst we appreciate our volunteers all year round, we love that this week allows us to showcase and highlight the amazing people we work with on a national scale.

We extend our warmest gratitude and aroha (love) to all of our wonderful volunteers who contribute their precious time & skills, and make our organisation so great to be a part of!

Volunteering weaves us together, strengthening the fabric of our communities for a stronger, more inclusive Aotearoa New Zealand.

If you would like to get involved, please give our volunteer coordinator Gill a call on 022 302 3413 😁

Did you know 24% of donated blood products go to kiwis living with cancer? In fact, cancer patients are among the largest users of donated blood in Aotearoa.

This National Blood Donor Week we want to say a massive thank you to all the blood, plasma and platelet donors in Aotearoa New Zealand for your selfless donation of this life saving gift.

If you've been inspired this week to start donating you can book an appointment at https://www.nzblood.co.nz/
