Help Maddie go to Sydney to compete in the Tournament of Minds International Finals

Any contribution you can give will make a huge difference to helping Maddie represent NZ in the International Finals.

"Hi, My name is Maddie and I recently competed in the National Competition for Tournament of Minds in Wellington, and for the second year in a row, came first in New Zealand in the Language Literature Division. Last year, I couldn't compete in Sydney because there wasn't time to fundraise, so my team mates and I are working really hard this year to raise money before the competition on 1st/2nd Nov 2024.

We have been washing cars, selling chocolate door to door, and selling delicious Pasta Vera products. But we still need to raise more money. So if you can donate a little to help me reach my goal I would really appreciate it."

Tournament of Minds (TOM) is a program for all primary and secondary students providing the opportunity to solve open-ended challenges that foster creative, divergent thinking whilst developing collaboration, time management, excellence and teamwork.

Maddie is excited to get to the international competition where she and her team can challenge themselves against students from around the world - which is is an amazing opportunity!
