Playing Santa for sick kids is worth it, say Matthew and Sarah from The Hits.
We get to give away some pretty awesome prizes in our job. We recently gave a wedding to a lovely couple with the help of some very generous local businesses.
And we are currently giving one lucky person the trip of a lifetime if they can correctly identify the songs
and artists in the music mix; the prize is a trip to see six artists in six different cities.
Very soon, 10 teams of two from Hawke's Bay will compete to win a cool holiday that comes with $500 spending money in Survivor: Tropical Island Edition (you can find out more details about all these competitions at thehits.co.nz).
The most rewarding thing we have given away recently, though, was a bunch of toys. Compared with the rest of the prizes we are fortunate enough to gift to people, that might not seem very impressive but these toys were for kids who are in Hawke's Bay Hospital.
As part of the Countdown Kids Hospital Appeal, we were given a large sum of money and charged with buying lots of toys for kids of all ages. Yep, our job is pretty tough at times!
