Once Upon A Kindness for Greyhounds
We are proud to collaborate with Greyhounds As Pets NZ in 2025, where we are continuing to help support retired greyhounds across New Zealand, following our $1,000 donation in 2024 to support their ongoing efforts.
Wish to Donate?
If you have a jacket or some beautiful fabric that you believe will be suitable for Once Upon A Kind’s Upcycled Bespoke Collection, please send a picture of the jacket to oliver.jones@onceuponakind.co.nz or contact me through the website. I will be in touch if it matches the needs of the collection.
Thank you
