Heidelberg Supports Charitable Trust in Christchurch |
 |
When a local paper sales person and the wife of a prominent New Zealand printer were diagnosed with breast cancer in February this year, the local print community in Christchurch came together to form a charitable trust – Full Colour Trust. The trust was formed to support any member of the local print industry who needed support for medical problems.
The first recipient of the trust is Mhairi Flett, mother of two young children and wife of Jonathon Flett from Pak World in Christchurch. The trust held a Ball and Auction on 3rd of November with over 300 hundred people attending. The ball and auction raised over $70,000 dollars towards the drug Mhairi needs to have a good chance of recovery.
Hemi Brown, National Sales Manager for Heidelberg New Zealand presented the trust with a cheque for $12,000 on behalf of Heidelberg Australia & New Zealand. "It is great to see how well the whole print community in Christchurch pulled together in Mhairi's hour of need," Brown said.
