So, I have emailed all the organisations we gave tickets and let them know that they can claim with their membership, tickets for the Auckland game that they can then pass onto volunteers in Auckland if they are a National organisation or to friends and family. So hopefully that will help get more people along to the game up their as well.

So last one, had been working on Red Cross the whole time but they finally confirmed yesterday. So we have also arranged Nix memberships to go to them which they will get in time for the next Wellington game.

I'm very interested to see what our membership numbers are when the website is next updated. Like to see us close to 5,000.

Well done to all involved.... The Nix, The Fever and all the donors, big and small.  This is the sort of thing that makes me proud to be a kiwi!

Ok, I'm sorry I lied. Red Cross wasn't the final one. I thought St John's wasn't interested as I hadn't heard back from them but got a call today and the Nix were happy to still arrange some memberships for them so St Johns have also got some memberships going to their volunteers from Yellow Fever.

Very disappointing Matt. You were on TV 1 news at the 4 Kings and not a single "Save the Nix" banner anywhere in sight!

Proud to have attended the first 175 Consecutive "Home" Wellington Phoenix "A League" Games !!

The Ruf, The Ruf, The Ruf is on Fire!!

Lol, I didn't even know I was going to be on TV at the time. But you're right, should have plugged #SaveTheNix

A lovely thank you card from Neonatal Trust for Yellow Fever Save The Nix membership campaign. One of the organisation we gave some too.

Message from Neonatal. 

Hi Matt

As I put in the card, we really appreciate you selecting The Neonatal Trust with this great initiative. Our support to stressed families is underpinned by volunteer help so being able to recognise them in this way is fantastic.

It's always important to close the loop and explain how we help to help us . . . Through your support, you and the Fever Dreams team will help us do more of this: https://goo.gl/O69Lpc

There's also a direct link to the Nix as Ben Sigmunds son Cameron arrived 16 weeks early. An example of just how stressful a neonatal journey can be:

We'd appreciate it if you can pass this note on to those who helped make the memberships for our volunteers happen. Our sincere thanks, and a digital high five to them. 

All the very best.


Regards

Neil O'Styke
Executive Director
The Neonatal Trust New Zealand
