Giftbox Boutique Launch Their 2022 Blue Ribbon Appeal For Prostate Cancer Foundation NZ

Giftbox Boutique has just launched its 2022 donation drive for the Prostate Cancer Foundation NZ.

The event is part of the Blue September Campaign where businesses and individuals across New Zealand run events to raise money for the foundation.

This is the fourth time Giftbox Boutique has run its Blue Ribbon appeal and is hopeful that it can surpass last year's donation.

“We’ve been running our blue ribbon appeal in the lead-up to Father’s Day for the past four years”, explains Giftbox Boutique Director, Katie Gray. “Each year we have managed to surpass our previous year's donation. We are super excited to push our blue ribbon campaign this year and make our contribution our best yet!”.

Customers are given the choice to add a blue ribbon to their order for an extra $1 when purchasing a gift on the Giftbox Boutique website. Giftbox Boutique then match this contribution, culminating in a $2 donation to the Prostate Cancer Foundation NZ for each gift box purchased with a blue ribbon.

Last year, the company raised $2160 for the charity, a figure that was their best blue ribbon appeal to date.

“The Prostate Cancer Foundation NZ is such a deserving charity who does so much wonderful work both promoting awareness and funding research”

Every year, Giftbox Boutique runs three ribbon charity campaigns: a blue ribbon for Father's Day, a pink ribbon for Mother's Day, and a red ribbon for Christmas.

According to Gray, "Our clients always show their support for our ribbon appeals. We are continually astounded by the generosity of our consumers and their willingness to get behind the charities we choose to support through our ribbon appeals”.

The blue ribbon drive is currently available on all gift purchases made on the Giftbox Boutique website, including the Father’s Day gift range. Simply select the blue ribbon option to make the $1 donation that will be matched by Giftbox Boutique.
