If you know of a charitable organisation requiring funding assistance to reach their ambitions, get them to apply for a donation by picking up an application form from their local Pub Charity hotel/tavern or download one from www.pubcharity.org.nz. Complete the form and send it, together with the required documents, to Pub Charity, PO Box 27 009, Wellington so it reaches us by August 7th, 5pm to be included in our next round.
