I would like to keep up my endeavor of painting, as it helps me refocus my thoughts.

Waikato

Please help me reach my goal so I can purchase my art supplies. They're dearer than the last time I painted (many years ago), so every little bit helps. I find that when I'm painting, my mind is clear, my moods are better, and I feel a sense of accomplishment. I will donate any extra money to Mental Health societies, and give my excess pictures to charities.

My grandfather helped me discover art when I was a child. I loved it, did very well at it too. I've now decided to do what he knew I could, pursue my dream of painting. I may not be famous, but I'll be happy within myself, and that is what this is all about.

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.
