AVEENO donates to Habitat for Humanity

AVEENO INSPIRED BY HABITAT FOR HUMANITY


Yesterday leading beauty brand AVEENO® presented Habitat for Humanity with a $4,880 donation, made possible by the funds raised from New Zealands first ever AVEENO® inspires pilates day in April this year.

Tickets to the inaugural event cost just $20 and the event was attended by 244 women. All proceeds went to Habitat for Humanity NZ, to help them with the inspiring work they do in helping Kiwi families into a home of their own.

Rachel Faulkner, brand manager for AVEENO®, hopes this will become an annual event held across New Zealand and anticipates greater returns for Habitat for Humanity in years to come.

“This donation is just the first step towards bringing alive the AVEENO® inspires global community initiative on a local level.”

“Habitat for Humanity’s ultimate goal is to eliminate poverty and homelessness from the face of the earth by building adequate and basic housing. The AVEENO® brand is thrilled to be part of that journey,” she says.

David Lawson from Habitat for Humanity looks forward to working with AVEENO® into the future.

“As well as this event being a heap of fun, the funds AVEENO® donated to Habitat for Humanity will provide a desperately needed hand up to one New Zealand family, helping them into their own safe and affordable home - which is something to be proud of!”

The AVEENO® inspires pilates day was held to celebrate the launch of its new Stress Relief range. AVEENO® hopes the event has encouraged women to lead a balanced life for greater health and wellbeing, as well as relieving the stress for one New Zealand family.
