Vector Lights is shining green in support of Sweet Louise, the only charity in NZ dedicated to providing practical, emotional and social care and support for New Zealanders living with incurable breast cancer. Green represents the triumph of spring over winter, life over death; teal symbolises healing and spirituality; and pink signifies the cancer that originated in the breast. Sweet Louise relies on donations from caring Kiwis, so they can continue helping people to live as well as possible, for as long as possible. Visit sweetlouise.org.nz to make a donation.
9 September is Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder (FASD) International Awareness Day and Vector Lights is shining red. FASD is a lifelong disability that affects people who were exposed to alcohol in the womb. It is estimated there are 60,000 young New Zealanders under 18 years old currently living with FASD and up to 3000 babies may be born with it over the next year. FASD Care Action Network unites whānau, strengthens communities and advocates for improved awareness, services and greater support for people living with FASD.
Vector Lights is turning yellow for Daffodil Day on 29 August to support the 1 in 3 New Zealanders who will receive a cancer diagnosis in their lifetime. Daffodil Day is Cancer Society’s most iconic and much-loved fundraising campaign and is a chance to show your friends and family affected by cancer that they’re not alone.
