Get out your bandannas, its time to support CanTeen! Eilish Walton, who oversees our graphic design and customer service, loves spending time with her niblings (nieces and nephews), and believes no young person should face hardship alone. Eilish has chosen to give back to CanTeen as it’s a charity close to her heart. Smart Pack are proud to support CanTeen and the support they give to young people living with cancer.
‘Cancer doesn’t care. We do.’
CanTeen has been around for 30 years, and their mission is to make sure young people don’t have to face cancer alone. Around 4,200 young people across New Zealand are impacted by cancer each year, whether it’s their own diagnosis or that of an immediate family member. CanTeen is there to help 13-24 year-olds dealing with their own cancer, their parent or sibling’s cancer, or the death of a parent or sibling. They do this by providing a wide range of support services, free of charge.
This year, the 1st of April was Bandanna Day. We wanted to do our bit by getting our workplace involved in this awesome initiative.
