The Times is recognising the many wonderful people in our local east Auckland community who go out of their way to help others with our regular Community Hero Award.
If you know someone who’s doing amazing things in our community, please email 50 to 100 words describing why they deserve this recognition, highlighting specific actions they’ve taken to benefit our community, with your and their contact details and a high-resolution photo of them if possible to chrish@times.co.nz.
Be sure to include details about what they’ve been doing, the impact they’ve made, and how long they’ve been involved in these efforts.
The award is sponsored by New World Howick.
Recipients will receive a $50 New World gift card and will be featured in our newspaper and on our website.
The latest recipient Henna He.
She’s nominated by Billy Davis, who writes: “Henna started volunteering in the community three years ago.
“Since then, she’s been a regular volunteer and area co-ordinator for Heart Foundation NZ, Breast Cancer Foundation NZ, Cancer Society NZ, Child Cancer Foundation, and SPCA.
“The Howick Local Board awarded Henna a Volunteer Appreciation Certificate to recognise her outstanding contribution to our community.
“On two occasions I supported Henna as a volunteer and was impressed at how passionate she is by serving our community, and the locals appreciated her taking the time to have a chat and answer their questions.”
