Oxfam is giving Kiwis the chance to win a Fairtrade coffee date with one of their favourite celebs from March 31-April 11 on Trade Me.
Fancy meeting up with New Zealand’s favourite Westy wild child Antonia Prebble for a cuppa on the set of her new film? How about the chance to share stories with singer Don McGlashan at a café by the ocean; go behind the scenes with fashion designer Kate Sylvester as she prepares for Australian Fashion Week; enjoy a big breakfast and brew with Jason Gunn on air; savour a complimentary degustation lunch with Chef Steve Logan and learn culinary skills from the legendary chefs at Wellington’s top restaurant Logan Brown; meet up with New Zealand’s funniest men Jeremy Corbett and Paul Ego on the set of their show 7 Days; attend New Zealand’s biggest night in comedy at the Last Laugh Comedy show and awards night with comedian couple Michele A’Court and Jeremy Elwood; or meet the cast of Shortland Street and be shown around the set with the gorgeous nurse Tracey and Doctor Maxwell, aka Sarah Thompson and Robbie Magasiva.
“Oxfam’s Biggest Coffee Break is a fun and easy way for you to get in behind a really important cause. Every dollar raised goes directly to promoting Fairtrade and helping coffee growers improve the quality of their lives. So come and have a coffee with me”, says Antonia Prebble.
Auctions went live on Trade Me today. The celebrity Coffee Breaks will be taking place during Fair Trade Fortnight May 7-22, in conjunction with Oxfam’s Biggest Coffee Break.
Last year 20,000 New Zealanders took part in Coffee Breaks in their homes, work, schools and communities. This year even more people will be doing the same to help raise awareness of Fairtrade and lift farmers in the developing world out of poverty.
People can bid on their favourite celeb and sign up to host a Coffee Break at www.OxfamCoffeeBreak.org.nz. Oxfam will send each host a Coffee Break pack containing FREE Fairtrade Caffe L’affare coffee, Kokako drinking chocolate, Whittaker’s chocolate and some great materials about Fairtrade.
All proceeds from the auctions will go towards Oxfam’s work to find lasting solutions to poverty and injustice.
