Help OneBike create a secure home for 50 community kids’ bikes so they are ready for local tamariki to ride for years to come.

Frankton, Queenstown

OneBike is taking on a precious fleet of 50 kids' bikes. Help us build them a secure home!

The OneBike Hub has been entrusted with a precious taonga (treasure)—the entire fleet of community kids' bikes formerly managed by the Wakatipu Toy Library!

While we are honoured to take on these wheels and keep them available for local tamariki, we have one urgent problem: The bikes need a home!

Our goal is to purchase and fit out a robust shipping container, transforming it into a secure, weather-proof, and accessible storage hub and help fund repairs and maintenance for the next two years. The "OneBike Kids' Home" is essential to keep the fleet maintained, safe, and ready for use by hundreds of local children for years to come.

FUNDRAISING GOAL:$20,000

Give $20 to get us to $20,000!

A huge thank you to Ziptrek Ecotours Queenstown for kickstarting this campaign with a MASSIVE donation of $5,000 towards this project.

About us

OneBike is a Lightfoot Initiative Project that is making sure that everyone in Queenstown to has access to safe and affordable bicycles, spare parts and quality cycling equipment. We are committed to reducing the disposal of bicycles into landfills by prolonging the lifespan of bikes.

Use of funds

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.
