🎀💓A big thank you to Quinton Gately and Bronwyn Shalcrass who laid on a lavish breakfast for Pink Ribbon Day this week. Staff showed up to chow down in support of this great cause. It's impossible to put a price on care, dignity and support for cancer suffers, survivors and their loved ones, but we know that every gesture and every donation, however small is going towards providing help where it's needed. All in all, the breakfasters raised a tidy $520 for the Breast Cancer Foundation NZ. 🎀💓
