Water for Christchurch
Water for Christchurch
Highlife Entertainment, George FM, Café Massimo and Y Generation will be joining forces this weekend to collect donations of bottled water to send to the effected areas in Christchurch after yesterday’s earthquake.
There is currently a major shortage of clean water in Christchurch so bottled water will be needed for families, rescue workers and clean up teams over the coming weeks.
Drop off points at George FM 105 Ponsonby Rd, Café Massimo Takapuna on the Strand, Café Massimo 23 Nuffield St Newmarket and Café Massimo Albany shop 246 Westfield Shopping Centre have been organised for donations this Saturday February 26th and Sunday February 27th between 10am and 5pm.
We ask that bottled water is delivered in boxes but if for any reason this is not possible, then bottles of water in plastic bags will also be fine.
Donations of canned food, clothing and other items of interest will also be accepted.
All donations will be delivered direct to Christchurch next week.
For more information or if there is any support that you or your company could offer, please contact Adam Bennett on the following details below.
