Koha to support getting restored guitars into the hands of kids learning to play

$100 donated
Given by 3 generous donors in around 4 months

We repair and (when we can) donate guitars to local schools and kids that need them

Birkdale, Auckland

3LR Guitars run a pay-it-forward program where if you donate your old guitar to us, we will repair and restore it free of charge, then gift it to a local school to get it into the hands of a learner.

Use of funds

Restoring guitars requires parts and materials. Some can be re-used from other guitars, some need to be purchased. All koha is used only for our donated guitars.

2% Effective Fee
On average, fundraisers pay just 2% to use Givealittle. This is one of the lowest effective fees in New Zealand fundraising. We charge a 5% platform fee to cover the cost of running the platform. Because most donors choose to top up their donation to cover this fee, the effective cost paid by fundraisers is about 2%. That means around 98 cents of every dollar raised goes to the cause.
