An enormous THANK YOU to all who contributed items for our auction - and do those who did the bidding too! It was a tremendous success, and lots of fun too. Overall we raised over $5000 through your support of the online auction. We can't thank you enough! 

NZDSA are doing a little fundraiser to help cover the costs of the amazing virtual conference they provided us with in October.  21 incredible information sessions.  Please donate if you can afford to ensure that NZDSA can keep providing these events.  It is an incredible way to get information from experts and ask questions – rather than asking google or Facebook!
