Help get Ben the rehab he desperately needs!

Aro Valley, Wellington

After a high speed car crash in March of 2025, Ben sustained a spinal cord injury at c6, c7. Making him a paraplegic. Ben has made incredible progress, but there is a long journey ahead. We are now hoping to be able to spend more time in Australia to continue rehab at making strides, the cost however is far greater than we can manage. Any donations are greatly appreciated!

Get Ben to Australia  10 December 2025

After an incredible trip to Australia, Ben has made incredible progress! Thank you all for donating to help make this trip happen! It has become clear that for Ben to keep progressing in his healing we will need to spend more time in Australia. ACC will not fund further rehab, so we will have to continue self funding, any help is much appreciated!

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.
