๐ Support one of our own โ Danu Abeysuriya needs your help this Thursday!
Many of you will know Danu Abeysuriya, CEO & Founder of Rush Digital, as the incredible force behind so many of our IESL NZ events over the years. As our principal sponsor and Patron, Danu has consistently shown up for our community โ and now it's our turn to show up for him! ๐
This Thursday night, Danu is stepping up in a big way โ literally sleeping outside in the cold alongside fellow business leaders to raise funds and awareness for Merge Cafe, which provides hot meals to people experiencing homelessness and hardship in New Zealand.
Whether it's a small personal donation or a contribution from your corporate giving budget, every dollar goes directly to helping someone in need. You can also help by simply sharing this with your networks!

Let's rally behind Danu and show what the IESL NZ community is made of. ๐ชโค๏ธ
