For the third year running, Hubbards has had a number of employees partake in this wonderful fundraising event – Shave for a Cure. This year was the biggest yet, with 15 people from both Hubbards and from our sales team – Twin Agencies – shaving their heads.
One of the participants was a woman (Rachel Burr – Marketing & NPD Manager), who dyed her hair black. Other shavees in the group were the CEO & CFO of Hubbards, the Director of Twin Agencies and none other than Dick Hubbard himself!

In case you don’t know what Shave for a Cure is, it’s the main fundraising event for the Leukaemia & Blood Foundation (LBF).
Every day 6 NZ children and adults are diagnosed with leukaemia, lymphoma, myeloma and related blood conditions. |

The fundraising from this event goes towards helping the foundation support the patients and their families through their tough times, as well as fund research and education. |
A very worthy cause that Hubbards is proud to support. The team at Hubbards and Twin managed to raise approximately $7,500 through sponsorships, Trade Me auctions and raffles (with prizes donated by a number of generous suppliers and contacts).
Hubbards then matched that money to donate a total of $15,000!! A great effort from a relatively small company.
Well done to everyone involved! |
