The Z Energy community programme Good in the Hood has returned, with each Z Energy service station to give $4,000 to local groups doing good in their hood.
Hastings and Napier charities and community groups have been invited to apply for the latest round of Good in the Hood funding.
Since the programme began in 2013, Good in the Hood has given away almost $8 million to thousands of New Zealand Aotearoa charities and organisations doing great things in their neighbourhoods.
Z retailers Hamish and Rachael Waddington, who operate seven Z sites across Napier and Hastings, are calling for charities and community groups to apply for a share of $4000 to be donated across four selected groups at every Z site across the country.
Hamish and Rachael say the Z funding allows them to give back to the communities they live and work in.
