Hauraki Breakfast is buying an Shark

Nationwide

Jerry and Manaia are entering the shark market and we're offering members of the public the opportunity to get in on the ground floor.

As Keyzie from The Big Show has spent the entire marketing budget on a homing pigeon, we're forced to have a whip around.

Our target is $4,300 to acquire one (1) great white shark.

All funds raised will go towards the sponsorship of a Great White tag to be deployed in the Dec 2026-May 2027 tagging season by the Sustainable Oceans Society.

If we fall short of the $4300 target the funds will still be donated to the Sustainable Oceans Society. We just won't have a shark.

As a shareholder, you'll receive absolutely no dividends, no voting rights, and no legal claim over the shark whatsoever. But also no responsobilities like you don't have to look after it or anything. I mean ideally we never see this thing.

Each donation goes in the draw to name the shark.

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.
