Lucy signs on the dotted line for Starship

NEWS FROM THE AUCKLAND DISTRICT HEALTH BOARD COMMUNITY
June 2004
Lucy Lawless, the Starship Foundation and Mercury Energy are
hoping that customers will get in behind a new scheme to help raise more
funds for new equipment at Starship Children’s Health.
The Xena Warrior Princess star and Starship Foundation board trustee is the
first to sign up for a Mercury Energy scheme called the Star Supporters’
Club, that will allow customers to make regular monthly donations to the
charity regarded as most worthy by many New Zealanders.
"Giving a little each month will make a huge difference to the work we can do here," says Lucy Lawless. "Starship commands a very special place in our hearts and the Star Supporters’ Club gives us a way to show how much we value this national facility."
The scheme enables Mercury customers to donate from as
little as $2 each month through their bills. The initiative aims initially
to raise $200,000 to purchase a new Mobile Image Intensifier, an important
piece of medical machinery that
allows doctors to obtain detailed x-ray images during surgery on children.
The images give accurate guidance to surgeons during operations such as
spinal corrections, bone strengthening, hip reconstructions and other
orthopaedic and general surgical work.
