BUSINESS UPDATE 

Harbour Hospice Awareness Month, 1-31 May 2025

Can you can help Harbour Hospice continue to be there for patients, their families and whānau by supporting us this Harbour Hospice Awareness Month.

Often described as a lifeline, we are asking for your help to continue to be there for our community.

Harbour Hospice is the only specialist palliative care provider in our region, caring for more than 1300 people every year. We walk alongside patients and their families at one of their most vulnerable times. The number of people we care for, along with the complexity of illnesses, is growing rapidly. Currently, we support 1 in 3 people who die in our community.

HOW YOU CAN HELP

It’s easy, sign up your business to do something for a day, week, or month during May. We will support you along the way with ideas and resource

HOST a fundraising event

Organise a morning tea or coffee break at your workplace. Invite staff to donate what they would normally spend at a café.

DONATE through sales

Pledge an amount from each transaction or a certain product or service during May. Even 50¢ per sale adds up and shows your customers you care.

COLLECT - Set up a donation point

Place our donation box at your checkout or reception area and encourage customers to donate their spare change. 

DONATE & SHARE - Make a direct donation

If you're unable to get involved, donate then challenge others to do the same! Every donation made during May will be matched dollar-for-dollar by our generous Principal Partners.

Whether it’s a morning tea, an amount from a product or service, collecting funds over the month, or simply a donation – you are helping ensure the future of Harbour Hospice.

We are here to support you in any way we can. Contact Emily Thomas by email or phone 021 242 2797.

We truly appreciate your support and look forward to talking with you further
