Here’s a great opportunity to rejuvenate your mind and help rejuvenate the school bus! NEXT Magazine’s lifestyle columnist and inspirational speaker Sarah Laurie is giving a seminar in Pukekohe next Thursday evening 19th September to share tips and tools for enriching your life and all proceeds from this fun night will go towards an upgraded school bus for Pukekohe East School children.

Your $30 ticket includes a glass of bubbles. Tickets can be bought from Pure Indulgence or BUY ONLINE through GIVEALITTLE. Click ‘Donate Now’, enter your credit card details and type Inspire in the comment box. Print your receipt to present on the night.

This month we’re running a fantastic fundraising promotion in partnership with The Village Press, New Zealand’s leading producer of extra virgin olive oil.

How it works: We offer Village Press olive oil packs to friends and family at lower than recommended retail prices and The Village Press will give us $4 cash back on every pack sold. It’s a win-win situation. Award-winning varietal and infused oils at unbeatable prices and money back to the school. The timing couldn’t be better with Christmas looming. It’s the perfect gift.
