This week’s recipients are Jan and Bob Wallace, nominated by Alanna Howard, who writes:
“Jan and Bob Wallace have recently retired after serving the Pukekohe community for many many years. Jan and Bob worked tirelessly organising food parcels for the community often out of hours when needed. They work with community projects like Seasons Grief and Loss for Children; music groups for young mums, and senior lunches to name a few. Jan and Bob are legends of the Pukekohe community and deserve every kindness for their selfless work for others.”
The Franklin Times is recognising the many wonderful people in our 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 80 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 editor@franklintimes.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 Little Ed Pukekohe. Recipients will receive a $50 Little Ed voucher and will be featured in our newspaper and on our website. As we are moving to publishing fortnightly, we will have a Community Hero in each edition of the newspaper.
