Pink Ribbon breakfasts and high teas are an annual fundraiser for the NZ Breast Cancer Foundation. Remuera’s Property 101 Group hosted a pink afternoon tea with actress Siobhan Marshall as special guest. The event raised more than $1500 for the charity. “We were so lucky to have Siobhan, and her beau Millen Baird, speak to us about how to make the most of every day, whether you’re dancing with the stars, sporting skimpy outfits in Outrageous Fortune or other adventures! She even took us on a journey of meditative appreciation for what we have, concluding in a toast to boobs,” says organiser, Property 101 Group director, Joanne Barreto, pictured above with Siobhan Marshall. “I had a scare last year and I can honestly say it was terrifying, and I’m one of the lucky ones. The more we can do to support prevention and research in the battle against breast cancer the better.” Proceeds from Pink Ribbon events fund research and medical grants to help improve breast cancer survivorship in New Zealand. The NZBCF also funds community support programmes. Supporters of the Property 101 event included Quality Hotel Parnell, Servilles Newmarket, T2, and the Rotary Club of Parnell.
