In the Spirit of Adventure!

$460 of $2,700 goal
Given by 6 generous donors in around 3 months

I have been lucky enough to be accepted into the Spirit of Adventure 10 day youth development voyage in November this year!

Taranaki

On the 22 November, this year I hope to go away on a 10-day voyage with the spirit of adventure. I am going on this to gain life skills, and seeing if life living at sea is the life for me. The experience would be a great insight of life on a boat. It will be a valuable experience for me because of my ambition to join the Royal New Zealand Navy.

I am currently studying for my NCEA Level 2 at new Plymouth Girls High School. The 10 Day Voyage is proven to increase participants’ life skills particularly resilience, self-esteem and self-efficacy. these would be great attributes to have for the future I want for myself. Additionally, it will be a great way to boost any applications I may have in the future.

It would mean a huge amount to me to take part in this awesome opportunity.

In order to achieve this I have set myself the target of fundraising as much of course fee over the next two months as I can.

I hope I can raise the whole $2400 plus the money it’s going to cost to get there and get back which will cost me about $300. While there is a way to go, I am hopeful that I will reach my target and go on to have an amazing experience.

I have set up this page hoping you guys could help me towards my goal. I would be extremely grateful if you would be willing to sponsor me with a donation, it doesn’t have to be a whole lot. Every penny counts.

If you donate $100 or more I will send you an art print from an original New Zealand artist. Your donation would mean a great deal to me and my family. I would be over the moon with anything you could offer.

I am also hoping to record a video and take photos of my time on the course so that you can see what your donation achieved.

You can make a donation and follow my progress online here and on Facebook at https://www.facebook.com/In-the-Spirit-of-Adventure-640154166189279/ .

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.
