    Our Give a little campaign has come to an end and we would like to thank all of you who have made a donation. Overall, we have had 40 donation and have raised $4650. On top of this, we have held a Quiz night together with an auction where we managed to raise a further $8000. We are now in the final stages of fundraising with one last big raffle to go which will end on 15th September and we are planning on earning at least $3000 with that. This means that altogether we will have earned nearly $16000 of the total cost of $22000. This makes it affordable for each of us and would not have happened without your support.

    We have been training at the yacht club 2 to 3 days a week/weather permitting and are organizing for one last big training weekend 16th/17th of September together with the other Nelson Sailing Teams. We will be updating photos and videos of training and the competition via our NCG Sailing Instagram page.

    Once again - thank you for your support!

  • We changed our fundraising goal

      7 June 2023

    We lowered our fundraising goal because we are hard at work with additional fundraising activities:

    * We are doing a number of raffles

    * We will be holding a Quiz Night at School on the 29th July

    *There will be days of Coffee Carts and Sausage Sizzles at school

    * We will get sweating with a Fun run and Hike off !

    All the money raised will go towards:

    Plane tickets (~$10 000) - AirNZ Nelson to Sydney return

    Accommodation (~$4500) - Boarding hostel at a nearby girls' school

    Race registration (AU$2250) - as set by the race organizers
