Fuel up for community causes

Motorists filling up at Warkworth’s Z petrol station throughout May have the chance to nominate a favourite charity or neighbourhood group to give them the chance of winning a share of $5000.

The Hudson Road service station is offering drivers four good causes to vote for: Fostering Kids NZ; Omaha Beach Surf Lifesaving Club; Pinc and Steel Cancer Rehabilitation Trust; and Victim Support Rodney.

The giveaway is part of Z’s annual Good In The Hood community funding programme, where every Z station in the country has $4000 to donate to four local causes, plus a further $1000 to use for discretionary neighbourhood support during the year.

Motorists will be given an orange token to vote with every time they make a purchase this month, and the number of tokens per charity will determine what percentage of funding goes to each group.
