NZ Safety Takes to the Streets in Support of St John

Manukau shoppers were quick to lend support to St John last week, opening their wallets for the Flash a Light for St John Appeal to help fund the charity’s work in the community. NZ Safety showed its backing of St John by pounding the pavements and collecting donations that contributed to the estimated $25,000 raised by the business for the charity during June.

The contribution made by NZ Safety, in addition to last week’s street appeal, included a percentage of their sales across the country for the month of June. NZ Safety National Manager Tim Searle said he was delighted with the generous response, and wanted to thank his colleagues for getting behind such a great cause. “St John does very important work by providing various programmes and services nationwide, and NZ Safety was pleased to give its support.

“NZ Safety is a keen supporter of St John’s work – we raised almost $13,000 last year to buy a second-hand community service vehicle. This year we hope our donation will go even further to help St John continue providing its vital services.”

St John provides ambulance services to 85% of New Zealanders, and delivers an extensive range of other services and products in the health and health-related fields. St John relies on public donations to help fund the work it does in communities around the country.

NZ Safety will continue its support for St John this year by again including them as a beneficiary of their annual charity golf day in November.
