BRUNCHING FOR PINK RIBBON THIS MAY
May 27, 2023 @ 9:00 am – 11:30 am
Hawke’s Bay wine producer Smith & Sheth is again joining the national effort to raise vital funds for Breast Cancer Foundation New Zealand (BCFNZ) with a special breakfast event on Saturday, May 27 in partnership with Malo restaurant.
In 2022, Smith & Sheth raised over $4,000 for BCFNZ thanks to the support of local businesses and the community. This year, they have an ambition to raise even more funds for this very worthy cause. Breast cancer is the most common cancer among New Zealand women, with more than 3,300 people diagnosed each year.
“We are thrilled to continue our support of the Pink Ribbon Breakfast event again this year,” said Natalie Grace, Smith & Sheth Brand and Marketing Manager. “Last year’s event was a great success, and a wonderful opportunity for the community to come together, enjoy a delicious breakfast and support the foundation. This year, we have an ambition goal of exceeding our previous fundraising efforts with the help of local businesses and our breakfast guests.”
Attendees will indulge in a pink-themed cocktail on arrival before settling in for a mini session with Hawke’s Bay stylist and colour consultant, Kay Shilton. Guests will then be invited through to Malo Restaurant for a high tea style breakfast created by Malo Head Chef, Bert van de Steeg. Pathologist, Lesley Joblin and Oncologist Jody Jordan will lead an interactive Q & A session designed to share empowering insights into what goes on behind the scenes in testing and making a breast cancer diagnosis, and the multidisciplinary team involvement in support and treatment.
In addition to the breakfast event, Smith & Sheth is hosting an online auction featuring items generously donated by local businesses and individuals. All proceeds from the auction and the breakfast event will be donated to BCFNZ to support their mission of raising awareness and funding research into breast cancer.
