Trying to keep the dream alive.

Nationwide

Elise has been dancing and performing since she was 3 years old. Next year she wants to continue this journey overseas at Village Nation Performing Arts School in Australia. In this current climate it is hard to save, and there is no support for course fees like there is here in New Zealand.

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.
