Help children and families in need - Butterfly Day

Help children and families in need - on Butterfly Day

Barnardos is looking for volunteers to organise fundraising events for Butterfly Day on Thursday 3 March. The leading children's charity hopes groups of people - friends, work colleagues, club members, college mates and others - will hang the Barnardos 'banner' over fund-raising activities and events to help Kiwi families and children in need. The appeal is supported by a hard-hitting television commercial (sponsored by Shell) themed with positive intervention for those children most at risk.
