POPPY DAY 2025
Our Poppy Team of volunteers have been very busy focusing on organising our annual Poppy Day appeal fundraiser, Thank you all, and especially to Julie for the organisation of the Poppy Boxes to our Local Businesses.
The Annual Poppy Appeal this year is on Friday 11th-13th April, please support all our Veterans. This years appeal is to raise awareness, that not all Veterans are Old. Over the last 30 years, there are more than 30,000 Veterans under the age of 50 in New Zealand serving in areas, such as Africa, Bosnia, Timor, Afghanistan and Iraq.
Please members, I do urge you all to support us during the Poppy Day appeal fundraiser, every dollar does count. If you would like to be part of the Poppy Fundraising Team this year, please call the Office on 4788033.
This year, we have 3 other ways to donate as well as our Poppy Day Boxes, that you will see on your travel.
April 1st – Poppy Boxes distributed throughout the East Coat Bays area to businesses.
April 11th – April 13th Poppy appeal for the general public. All volunteers will be out and about in the ECB area selling Poppies.
April 25th - ANZAC Day 2025.
Once again, I thank you for your time and support and let’s make the 2023 Poppy Day appeal fundraiser the best yet.
Kind Regards,
Executive Committee
