Our people are our greatest asset – and Karen Heslip (pictured below, front in the bright green wig) embodies the values we hold dear.
Not only is she a
busy woman juggling her role as an accountant at Macdonald Perniskie’s Gore office since 2015, raising a family and looking after their
sheep and beef farms at Pukerau and Moa Flat, she’s also a stalwart community volunteer and advocate for the Child Cancer Foundation
(CCF).
It’s a cause dear to her heart and a way of repaying the CCF team for their support in helping her and her family through their youngest son’s cancer journey and through the pain of losing him in 2001.
Since then, Karen has helped co-ordinate CCF’s annual street appeal and other fundraising ventures in the south, supported families going through cancer, and shared her story with various groups to help raise awareness for those in need. One of her most rewarding experiences is helping organise social activities and family camps for families going through cancer so they can connect with each other outside the hospital environment to relax, chat and enjoy activities together.
Karen has also supported CCF behind the scenes in administrative and governance roles. In 2001, she became secretary – and then Chair - of the Southland branch committee. She then became Chair of the wider Otago/Southland regional committee and joined CCF’s National Board in 2011. This governance role gives Karen a chance to represent and be a ‘voice’ for parents and families from the Southland area which gives her a great deal of satisfaction. In 2018, CCF recognised Karen’s huge contribution with a Distinguished Service Award.
Karen’s workmates at MPL are very supportive of her efforts and think she’s “a legend with a huge heart”. She, in turn, is very grateful for their support and describes the annual CCF Wig Wednesday fundraiser that the office takes part in as “very entertaining”
