Comments
Greenlight like all our supporters have been saddened that with the Coronavirus situation we have been unable to run events for you.
Over the last few months we have had to cancel TED talks and our Gala on Gala. We are thankfully still able to host Pavluber for you.
However we are optimistic for the future, we will get through this with kindness and love for each other and Greenlight is really looking forward to events next year to bring smiles and connect us all.
Kia Kaha NZ.
