The Times is recognising the many wonderful people in our local east Auckland community who go out of their way to help others with our regular Community Hero award.
If you know someone who’s doing amazing things in our community, please email 50 to 100 words describing why they deserve this recognition, highlighting specific actions they’ve taken to benefit our community, with your and their contact details and a high-resolution photo of them if possible to chrish@times.co.nz.
Be sure to include details about what they’ve been doing, the impact they’ve made, and how long they’ve been involved in these efforts.
The award is sponsored by New World Howick. Recipients will receive a $50 New World gift card and will be featured in our newspaper and on our website.
This week’s recipient is Caro Hubber, who works at the Howick Pakuranga Toy Library.
She’s nominated by Shelley Clews, who writes:
“Caro is paid for eight hours a week being our wonderful Toy Librarian. The actual number of hours per week she does is triple or more.
“She volunteers countless hours searching for missing pieces, cleaning toys, labelling, mixing sets around and finding the correct pieces to go into the sets from our donations.
“She works tirelessly to make our library amazing and we could never do it without her endless support!”
