THE ROSE AWARD PRESENTED TO

THE ROSE AWARD PRESENTED TO… NASRIN & RAJIV ANUSHAN

The NZDSA has nominated Nasrin and Rajiv Anushan for the Rose Award for their donation of 400 Hangpods to the NZDSA.

Hangpod is a beautiful and durable indoor swing that can be used by children between 3-10. When contacted by Nasrin and Rajiv, the NZDSA immediately realised that the children of our families would really enjoy and benefit from using a Hangpod.

We expected to receive a few donations, but to our surprise the extremely generous donation consisted of 400 Hangpods in bright orange and purple which, of course, are the NZDSA colours. This was an extremely generous donation and the NZDSA would like to thank Nasrin and Rajiv for partnering with the NZDSA to provide our members with a valuable resource for their families so their children with Down syndrome and their siblings can have a place to have fun and relax.

I am sure you will join me in thanking Nasrin and Rajiv for their generosity. You can read more about Nasrin and Rajiv’s story of Hangpods on the next page. If you would like to receive a Hangpod for your child, then please send us a paragraph telling us why you would like a Hangpod. Please email Linda nzdsa1@xtra.co.nz

And naturally we would like to see a photograph of your child enjoying their Hangpod so we can share it with our readers of Chat 21. The NZDSA would also like to thank and acknowledge the generosity of TIL who donated all the freighting costs.
