Helping The Dyspraxia Support Trust

Jun 27, 2008

During 2007 Benefitz were lucky enough to receive a Civic Award from North Shore City. Tireless community contributor Bonnie Williams was also presented with an award. It was an acknowlegment of the work that she does for the Dyspraxia Support Trust, an organisation which helps children with both Dyspraxia and other special needs. The award was also for the work Bonnie does for the Grandparents Raising Grandchildren Trust and the part she plays as a member of her local Catholic Parish Church Council.

As a result of this connection Benefitz have recently assisted Bonnie with her efforts with The Auckland Dyspraxia Support Trust.

“During the ceremony a man approached me and introduced himself by offering his help with my work,” explains Bonnie Wiliams. “In my often up-front manner I said that he might regret his offer. We laughed and chatted for a while about our respective work and efforts for the community. He gave me his card and told me to come and see him. And so I did.”

“The Dyspraxia Support Trust needed some mobile advertising signs for when we attend seminars and give talks to the various interested groups as we do from time to time. He was very glad to help with this and now we have two truly excellent mobile display signs, which are absolutely perfect for what we need when we are making our periodic presentations. Because there can be no doubt whatsoever that the more people know
about Dyspraxia and its related special needs the more they will be able to help the children that suffer from these very difficult problems.”

“I wish to thank Benefitz on behalf of the Auckland Dyspraxia Support Trust, and also personally, because Aidan Bennett and his team have been absolutely wonderful and have shown that they were and are so deserving of the Civic Award that they did indeed receive last year. I am so pleased that I was lucky
enough to meet such generous, capable and kind hearted people. Thank you Benefitz.”
